I am reforming my old covers band, having moved to Norfolk from London a few years ago…
We are looking for a very talented guitarist who can join us to complete our solid three piece.
I am a singing bass player and my drummer is amazing! I have always gigged as a three piece as it gives lots of space/room for each of us but there is no where to hide!
The priority is to have fun, play really well and gig once or twice a month around Norfolk/beyond. I have a job & family/kids etc so family balance is important. I’m not trying to be a rock star or show off, just have fun.
I’m 44, my drummer is 20, age isn’t important but talent and attitude are. Must have own gear and transport etc.
Idea is to have regular rehearsals initially to get up to speed then start booking in some gigs and get out there.
I’m expecting to start back as a pub covers band and then hopefully some weddings etc but no big plans.
To give you a flavour, the following was our last set, but I’m always keen to expand and get in new songs.
