Low Winter is an alternative rock band based in the North East, looking to build a committed, gig-ready lineup.
I’m Andy, a 32 year old vocalist and songwriter based in Newton Aycliffe, and I’m searching for experienced musicians who want to be part of a serious project with momentum, ambition, and nearly two full albums already written.
Musicians Wanted (North East-based or able to travel)
Lead Guitarist - atmospheric, expressive, confident with melodic lines and dynamic live presence.
Rhythm Guitarist - tight, driving, able to build layered textures and strong foundations.
Bassist - groove-anchored, comfortable with darker, post-punk-leaning arrangements.
Keyboardist - synths, pads, arpeggios, and moody soundscapes are essential to our identity.
Drummer - solid, powerful, able to handle both energetic tracks and atmospheric slow-burners.
If you’re in the North East and want a band that’s ready to rehearse, record, and gig, this is the right project.
Our Sound:
Low Winter blends alternative rock with post-punk and dark-wave influences. Think:
The Cure
The Mission
The Killers
The Sisters of Mercy
Depeche Mode
A mix of melancholy, energy, atmosphere, and modern alt-rock drive.
What’s Already in Motion:
Nearly two full albums written, ready for arrangement and recording.
A clear artistic direction and established sound.
Plans for regular rehearsals (North East area).
Aiming for consistent gigging across Newcastle, Durham, Sunderland, Teesside, and beyond.
This is a committed, long-term band - not a casual jam project.
Who I’m Looking For:
Musicians who are:
Experienced and confident.
Passionate about alt-rock, post-punk, and atmospheric music.
Reliable and committed.
Excited to rehearse regularly and play gigs.
Ready to contribute creatively.
