Hey, I'm Paige, 31 and I spent 7 years touring in a metal band pretty solidly, playing hundreds of shows in 11 countries, including tours across Europe and Russia, as well as slots at Bloodstock amongst others.
I've been out of the scene since late 2017, but recently got the itch to get back into music again! That said, I'm not really looking to jump straight into hardcore touring like before, for me, the main thing I'm looking for above all else is a good group of people that are having fun making heavy, groovy music together and just good vibes all round.
I like to think I have a pretty good unclean range (cannot sing clean to save my life though, but also happy to work with another vocalist who can!): gutturals, pseudo-squeals, randy-blythe-esque growls, mid-range shouts and high screams are all within my wheelhouse.
My live presence is generally one of high-energy, jumping and running around like crazy, climbing stuff and getting right into the crowd. I have some photos of me at Bloodstock where I left the tent completely to terrorise passersby mid-set, to give you an idea!
influenced by bands like Parkway Drive, The Black Dahlia Murder, Whitechapel, Lamb of God, Knocked Loose, Ingested and countless others. Big fan of groove metal and "Core" genres, but I'm very open as my tastes range from J-pop/rock to pop-punk and heavy stuff all the way from nu-metal to death metal!
Have my own transport and willing to travel from Swindon within a maybe 90 minute radius. Havent got my old gear, but if it's a gigging band, can easily get hold of some wireless equipment.
