ABOUT

Hi, my name is Alex and I am looking to join a band, or set one up again... I can play any style, basically. Although I won't "just play anything", if you get my drift. Approach me (alexvdijk at hot-mail dot com), I'll let you know if I'd like to play your style.


To set up my own band means to make a mix of things; alternative rock, 80's wave and pop, prog metal and rock, 60's/70's rock, 90's grunge and hard rock... just check this website, and add a bit more "edge and balls" to it: www.myspace.com/elninomudo. By the way, those songs are mine.

I have played most of my life in Europe (the Netherlands and Spain), which is where I am from. I have been in Australia since 2008, but haven't found that 'ideal' band yet. So, maybe this will get things started over here...no bull.
