Hello,
I've been playing bass for about 4 years, and looking to start playing with other people regularly.
I'm mostly interested in metal or similar styles, and would be interested in joining something existing or starting something up.
I'd like to commit to regular practice as a group and should be able to host rehearsals weekly or fortnightly. I know a few people that should be able to cover vocals but don't have any options for a guitarist or drummer at this stage.
I have guitar and bass parts for a few songs together, and some options for places to play gigs. I also have quite a bit of business experience and can easily handle things like creation of physical media, distribution and artwork when required. Just need to get a good group together and put our heads down together until we have something we're really proud of.
I'm interested to hear from anyone and everyone, and will try to reach out to plenty of local musicians. If you would like to contact me but prefer to do so away from the site, please email me on my Outlook address emilio_gray outlook.com
Thanks!
