SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass Guitar, Piano, Other.ABOUT
Looking to jam,gig and record. It's all about participation for me. Been playing for years and still love it... Probably more than ever to be honest.
I've got a tunes and want to record them to a decent standard. The current versions on web site I done all the parts for. I'm not too hot on the keys, drums etc, the drums are midi as I don't have a kit and would sound like a manic monkey in the midst of a terrible come down if I did, so thought it best to program something and keep it in time. I enjoy banging away on the drums but as I'm inexperienced on them I get a bit excited and speed up when things are going well... Always speed up when things are going well, as the Mrs would testify ; )
I set up a contact account here so if you'd like to jam, are looking for a lead or rhythm guitarist and even some backing vocals just get in touch.

In too deep
In too deep Track number: 1 Year: 2013 Genre: Other
Recorded with my good buddy Johnny McConnell... Try not to lose too much when playing cards drunk and dishing out abuse is never a good case for a refund!

Was that it? (Bit of a non event)
Was that it? (Bit of a non event) Track number: 2 Year: 2013 Genre: Other
Regardless how much you enjoy your 20's (cause they're great), at some point in the 30's you feel like it's all been a but of a non event. I had a great decade but this was jotted down on one of those days were you no longer feel indestructible (if you're a little bit older you'll understand that hangovers start to feel life threatening!)

Never Again
Never Again Track number: 4 Year: 2013 Genre: Other
A song about being away from the good lady and me two lads. She's not in to the guitar solo's but it's meant to be gender based. The soft edged nicer lady being the acoustic and more abrasive loud man is the distorted guitar. They're basically saying the same thing. Then together. Then in harmony... Didn't really finish the recording but with the wife and kids again it's hard to find the tine! ; )

Penny for your thought
Penny for your thought Track number: 3 Year: 2013 Genre: Other
A tune about heading out in the world with a shit attitude and closed mind doesn't get you far regardless of distance traveled. To enjoy it all you need an open mind and willing to play hard.
