Hey!
We are a lead singer and guitarist from Ipswich, who have done rock & pop covers in pubs and functions before and now we're looking to start an awesome new reggae/ska project.
We've had some solid interest from a Drummer, Bass player and Female backing singer, so it would be great to hear from you whether you are a keys player, sax, a guitarist or maybe you want to try backing singing...whatever your instrument, we're looking to arrange an initial meet-up soon, so get in touch if you'd like to come along.
We'd like to take popular songs and play them in a reggae style, as well as play the reggae classics and crowdpleasers that people will love. Ideally it would be cool to have jams and create original music together down the line, who knows. But the priority for us is to have fun, make some friends and play some beautiful music for people!
The most important thing is that you love reggae music. Here's some of the cover song ideas we've come up with so far and your ideas will be welcomed too!
