Hi All,
We are itching to find a vocalist, someone who is passionate, motivated and can help us finish an album's worth of tracks. Influenced by The Smiths, Oasis, The Who, The Verve etc.
Dave has joined us with a wealth of solo material that we are playing in this band such as:

You can also find a couple of instrumental tracks which we are in the process of finishing off below:

We are all experienced band members with our own gear:
Dave has worked in bands abroad and in the UK for over 10 years. He has his own studio with a range of gear for recording, see the Soundcloud links as an example. Dave joined us with a whole repertoire of songs he had written himself. He will be doing backing vocalist and playing bass.
Alex (guitarist) was formerly a bassist for Birmingham Metal Band, Oceans Ate Alaska and managed the band until he left for university commitments. The gigs he booked include Mallory Knox, Lower Than Atlantis and Senses Fail to name a few. He also booked the music video for “Clocks” which has amassed 7 million views on YouTube and ran all social media channels.
Will's been in an out of a couple of bands over the years around Birmingham and has always been the primary song writer for guitar parts.
Tom has been drumming for original bands in Birmingham and a cover band in his time in London over the past 5 years. Tom can also sing and will be doing some back vocals on the tracks.
We will be leveraging this experience and existing network to talk firstly to promoters to get gigs but also labels and management when the time comes. By a stroke of luck, we have been in contact with Alan Mcgee (the guy who signed Oasis). We have a plan for 2019 but of course, it is dependent on finding a vocalist.
We would like to be in a band with people a similar age to ourselves so ideally if you are between 18-30 that would preferable.
We are Birmingham based, rehearsing usually in Robannas studios (central Birmingham) so travel to there is essential.
Get in touch if it takes your fancy and we can have a chat about our ideas, either on here or at alex@raptormusic.co.uk
Please send us in links to any vocal recordings, phone recordings, social media accounts or any videos. Anything will do that helps us get an idea is better than just a message.
Thanks!
