Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
Original: alt-country / blues-rock / folk-punk.
Songwriter and guitarist with lots of original songs is looking for a bass player and a drummer. I play lead and rhythm on both electric and acoustic.
The plan is to get some songs sounding good and tight. When this is achieved, gigs and recording will follow. Also keen to work on some unusual covers.
I am looking for versatile muso's who can thump it like the Cosmic Psychos for example, but who also have the ability to play like say The Gadfly's, depending on the occasion.
Check out some of my influences below to see if there is something in common.
Please call 0407 942 011 if you want to have a jam.
