Bassist + Drummer Seeking Punk/Goth/Post-Punk Bandmates
Looking to kick things off in the New Year (once Christmas chaos is out of the way). Guitarists, vocalists, and keys welcome! Fife, Scotland

Drummer is a ridiculously sound guy called Martin and he can play with/without click
About Me
Hi, I’m Steve, 37, bassist based in Fife. I’m keen to start or join a band rooted in punk, goth, and post-punk covers, with the goal of moving into original material.

Life Stuff (Full Disclosure)
- Dad to a brilliant 3 year old — committed to rehearsals, but life occasionally throws curveballs.
- Reliable, realistic, and drama free.
- Recently played in a band that ended amicably (no-ones fault), gutted but I’m back on the hunt for something new.
---
Commitment
- One practice a week + gigs.
- Professional day job, so I’m looking for people who are serious about music but not into drugs or illegal nonsense. That's a deal breaker for me and if it's what you're into I'm sure you'll agree I'm not worth your time.
- Let’s keep it clean, creative, and fun.
---
Why Work With Me
- Friendly, driven, and while I'm still improving...I want to keep doing so.
- Organised — happy to arrange practices and keep communication flowing.
- Respectful and inclusive: gender, race, religion, sexuality don’t matter. Good vibes and mutual respect do.
- If you’re more advanced, give me time — I’ll catch up fast.

What I’m About
I thrive in a band setting and I’m hungry to grow. To me, goth is just spicy punk — and I’m here for it. I want to play the music I love, meet others who feel the same, and get out gigging. If you’re up for a jam, let’s make it happen.
Get your sunglasses on and as the Cramps say “We’ll look sharp"… or perhaps we'll look a bit weird and probably bump into things
