Im a 25 year old bassist looking to join or form a pop punk band, either one is cool with me (no cover bands please), . Influences and the sound im going for include: Neck Deep, WSTR, The Story So Far, A Day To Remember, State Champs, Blink 182, All Time Low. Im heavily into pop punk so anything that style.
Im looking to write, record and gig as much as possible as soon as its aloud! The gig part is big for me so keen as to play some shows, little or large im stoked to play anything with some energy! Happy doing some backing vocals too.
Im pretty competent at writing bass lines and guitar riffs, and can help out with lyrics occasionally if need. Looking for something to really work hard at. Keen to learn songs you have already written if joining an band, and ive got a bunch of ideas / demos to make into pop punk bangers!
Ive been in a bunch of bands before including a punk cover band in the French Alps and a garage pop punk lockdown project on a ski season which we wrote, recorded and mixed a 6 track EP, so I've got all equipment and stuff to record demos. Here is a link to a song I wrote and mixed... https://www.dropbox.com/s/sv8672p43oj7n8v/See%20You%20In%20Spring%20-%20Shit%20Wizard.mp3?dl=0
and here is a link to a song we wrote about quiche for a laugh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpuUD8s9am4
This was all done in France but Im Heading back to the Uk permanently in a weeks time so no stress.
I live in Chester but have a car so Im keen to travel around a bit, Liverpool, Manchester, North Wales, anything around here is cool.
Here are some videos of me playing a few covers with many mistakes:
