Band to Join, Vocalist, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drums.ABOUT
:THE TRACKS I HAVE UPLOADED ARE NOT MICED OR MIXED, JUST LINE IN RECORDED DIRECT TO PC FROM MY EFFECTS PROCESSOR.
Lookimg to collaborate and record original tracks, also to get into a regular jaming routine and maybe start a band.
I've Played 6 string down tuned (not drop tuned) since the 90s. Into metal.
Currently honing my skills on 7/8 strings.
Can play covers but am rusty. Would need to practice covers as i have been mainly writing my own music since the late 90s.
Spent 3 years in a hard rock band I always added my thrashy metal touch to it and added a bit of a metal rock fusion.
Definitely keen to atleast jam with others to further braoden my skills as its great learning from other musicians.
Ive been self taught and playing by ear since I first touched a piano at 8 years old. Progressed to bass then guitar.
