I live in the Seaford area and am looking to start a band or tiny orchestra playing some originals that I’m currently writing.
UPDATE: I’m very keen to find a female singer to work with. Ideally you’d also play an instrument of any kind.
I’m looking for people who want to be involved in something that will give you the space to bring yourself and your musical ideas too. So my songs are places you can express yourself through - it's all about the collaboration however that comes out. And yes, gigs and recording are definitely part of that.
You don’t have to be a great musician, what’s important is enthusiasm and a willingness to explore and experiment. But if you are a great musician, that will also be fabulous!
In an ideal world I'm looking for upright and/or fretless bass, sax, keyboards (think Fender Rhodes but not limited to that), piano accordion. Backing vocals would be great. Male/Female/non-binary, old/young - the circus welcomes everyone!
I've been playing the guitar and bass for about 45 years in Blues and Rock bands in the UK. Also ran and played in an 11 piece Latin-Funk band band for three years. I'm in Seaford now, so would prefer to be working with people who are reasonably local if possible. But I'm open - I want to work with people who want to have fun and create something different.
Eventually I'll be posting songs here and also on in-sta-gram as micmacdavidson.
