Hey people,
Experienced bass player here looking for a function/party/wedding band to join and leave the rat race for good. I play in a successful, up-and-coming indie rock band which has toured up and down the UK supporting big bands like the DMA' & The Snuts etc. and an acoustic duo that is just starting out. But as many of you will know, as both are passion projects - they don't exactly put bread on the table right now.
I really do love all kinds of music, so I am open to any kind of function set up providing there's lots of paid shows in the diary or at least plans for that in 2024. A band that is already up and running and needs a bass player would be ideal so I can escape the matrix ASAP, but I'm also open to joining a fledgling project with the right committed individuals. Also open to depping while I look for a long-term group.
About me: I'm 27 y/o & a graduate from a respectable London music university in both performance (BA) and music production (MA) majoring in bass guitar, though I also play guitar and sing proficiently. I have been playing bass since a very young age, but the majority of my live experience has come in the last 7-8 years having played hundreds of gigs.
Gear: I have all my top quality gear (P bass, a range of pedals, DI + cab sim for smaller set ups and a monster Ampeg v4b valve amp for the right shows, Sennheiser IEM system etc.) and my own transport.
On top of this I think I'm a good hang - I'm friendly, professional, extremely passionate about music and also my work life balance which is why I want to move into being a full-time musician. I am located in Central Bedfordshire but can easily travel to Bucks, Herts, Northants and London for rehearsals and virtually anywhere when the gigs roll in.
If you need more info drop me a message here and I'll get back to you sharpish,
Cheers
