ABOUT

Hi.....and thanks for visiting,

Here's what I'm thinking....I'd like to develop/ be involved with a concept band, duo or ensemble with a view to playing fun gigs in the Byronshire/ Gold Coast area.

Open to all ideas but possible scenario's could be

1/ Kick-ass classic Soul/ Funk/ Disco band to play large venues/ events/ weddings.

2/ Originals band funk/ soul/ disco/ reggae/ world-music to play venues, festivals, events.

3/ Small ensemble edm/ disco/ funk/ original or covers to play busking, small venues, events, festivals.

4/ Form duo for covers with original sound (looping?) for busking. small venues/ events.

In my experience performers who can deliver a compelling show (both the sound and visual performance) get the best gigs, so looking for like minded people.

Would love to chat with vocalists, bass players, drummers, keyboard players, guitarists, DJ's, horn section or any other musicians with similar interests.

My experience includes playing and managing bands in Byron/ Brisbane and South-East Asia. Including a rock covers band, Rolling Stones tribute band and funk/ soul/ disco covers band.

I play lead and rhythm guitar and have PA and equipment.

Also experienced in all aspects of managing a band including promotion, organising gigs, making sure everyone gets paid, etc.

Committed to making this a fun project with prospects of getting fun and rewarding gigs in the near future.

Get in touch if this sound of interest.

Cheers Jerry Strummer
