Hey, i'm looking for any local musicians out there who would be interested in making music. I'm an open minded 34 year old multi-instrumentalist/singer/songwriter based south of Bristol. Basically i'm looking to develop original/experimental music with anyone who enjoys both writing music, and (importantly) the challenge of making it have its own identity..
Knowledge of technology would be an advantage (mine is fairly limited, but enjoy experimenting). I have a fair bit of past experience being in bands that didn't quite make it for numerous reasons, and for the past few years took a hiatus from music to focus on travel and being a parent, but still writing when time is there - however I find it hard to motivate myself and work much better with others!
It's always difficult to explain influences, as I like all sorts of stuff - I listen to 6Music quite a lot as I enjoy the diversity. I generally like anything that is well produced - quite enjoying Sam Fender at the moment and really enjoyed Radiohead's last album (Moon Shaped Pool), also love Afrobeat, jazz, dance, trip-hop, post-punk, Motown, The Beatles, Chemical Brothers, Floyd and Gorrilaz for their ability to challenge the mainstream pop with concepts/collaborations.
I'd love to say I have all the time in the world to commit to something but I would be lying! I can commit to a weekly/fortnightly thing, in my opinion the quality of it is what matters, also believe that if the music is good enough then the audience will follow in time
I realise this is a lot to mention as i have had a look at other posts but thought I would lay my cards on the table in the hope of finding someone/some people who would be interested in a similar approach!
So if any of the above is of interest please get in touch..
