Bassist looking for band
Hi everyone,
My name is Cammy and I'm a 22 year old bassist. I've just been let go from a band because I don't dance around on stage (no, I'm not kidding) so I'm looking to get back into it.
I work in Glasgow but I live in Forth, near Lanark, so would need to find either a band in Glasgow that practices during the week or a band near Lanark that practices at weekends (anywhere between East Kilbride and Livingston isn't too far away for me). I'm also busy most Friday nights.
I've been playing bass properly for the last 5 years and was in my last band for 3 years. I've got my own amp and pedals so I feel like I've got a good sound. I listen to loads of different types of music, it just needs to interest me. My top bands on Spotify last year were Sting/The Police, Enter Shikari, Mastodon and Devin Townsend but I also take a lot from Deep Purple, Red Hot Chili Peppers and King Crimson. I also have a year of experience booking and planning gigs around Glasgow so I've learned a lot about when to book gigs and I've got an idea about how to promote a gig.
I'm looking for a band that plays for fun and ideally everyone can have space to come up with what they want. I'm not too bothered about genre but I prefer heavier/impactful music.
I can send links to videos of me playing if anyone is interested 🙂 send me a DM if you want to chat about anything 🙂
Thanks,
Cammy
Glasgow/Lanark
