I'm Vince Cayo, a 21 year-old solo singer-guitarist-accordionist out of Shipley. I've been gigging, touring and recording on my own for a good few years now but i've gotten to the stage of wanting to take it a tad bit further and get some more musicians involved in it. I'm mostly looking for drums and bass (double bass and i will love you forever) but also violin, guitar, accordion, banjo, and the rest. (trumpet, piano, anything...)
I want to play a blend of folk, punk, rockabilly, world music, irish trad, and dirty blues, molded by whatever line-up we can put together. It might end up being a 7-piece trad band, 5-piece punk band, or a rockabilly trio, dont matter, It just has to be soulful, wild and energetic! The main idea here is to get a bit more out of those tunes i usually play on my own
Influences for this particular gig would have to be Flogging Molly, The Pogues, Dave Van Ronk, old timey folk bands like the Weavers, Stray Cats, Gogol Bordello, Steve Earle & The Dukes, The Chieftains, The Living End, Street Dogs, Dropkick Murphys, Social Distortion, Janis Joplin, Tim Barry...
I've recently put out a debut album with a bunch of local musicians which should give you an idea of what i want to do with a band. you can listen to it over this way -> https://vincecayo.com/music
I'm in the Leeds/Bradford area myself, but i dont want to restrict it to that one area so that's cool even if you come from further afar
So yeah, that's the kind of craic i'm on about. Give us a shout if interested! i'm more looking for kindred spirits than incredible musicians but i'd be well happy if you had both!
Cheers, Vince
