**No timewasters or egocentrics please**
Looking to work alongside a singer (male or female) or a band to develop some songs I have written as part of a collaboration.
Idea is to work the songs up and then for them to be passed on to you to be taken as far as they could potentially go.
I’ve been writing songs on and off for the past 10 years that I have never really done anything with. I’m now early 30s and I don’t have the time or vocal ability to dedicate to performing the songs as part of a band, I have a young family and a time intensive job.
My vocal ability is basic so a good strong singer is very important. My age is now a barrier so looking for a younger band or performer who wants to make them their own.
I have 10 – 15 songs at various stages. Mainly in very basic acoustic and vocal demo format which could be developed to suit any particular genre or taste.
A very open mind is required. If you’re looking for the finished article this isn’t it.
In terms of my influences and artists I’m into they include:
Noel Gallagher
Stereophonics
The Beatles
The Verve
Smiths
Stone Roses
The Who
Rolling Stones
Kasabian
Coldplay
Sam Fender
U2
Blossoms
Courteeners
90s Britpop
Paul Weller
Wide ranging Indie and Rock n Roll
Soul
Northern Soul
Best ofs of any major pop act
I’m increasingly more open minded on genre so get in touch if of interest.
Happy to work alongside other songwriters who have a better vocal ability than mine.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Happy to discuss.
Cheers
Phil
