Starting alt rock band - bassist in 20s wanted, Starting alt rock band - bassist with pick in 20s needed, Starting alt rock band - bassist with pick in 20s wanted

Hi, I'm looking for a bassist & a drummer to form a trio with. The band would be based in Brent, although I'm happy to occasionally rehearse in Harrow or Watford or around those parts in addition to Brent.

I'm especially looking for a pick using bassist who is in their 20s (I'm in my early 20s) and is hopefully punk inspired. I'm not too bothered by technicality as it's not something I focus on when I'm making songs. I have a mate who can fill in on drums initially if there are no drummers available, but bassists are much rarer to find. I hope for this to be a somewhat long-term thing over the next few years at least.

I'll link some demos of songs I want to use straight away at the bottom, and am happy to answer any questions. I'm very punk & alternative rock influenced, with my main bands of influence being Nirvana, the Manic Street Preachers and Queens Of The Stone Age, while I'm also quite influenced by the other main grunge bands, Mark Lanegan, the Pixies, Placebo, Buzzcocks, Black Flag and the Adolescents among others.

I really want this to be a success, and hope this will be a long-term thing and a good partnership for a long time to come. I'd like to say I'm nice and easy to get on with (sometimes a bit quiet, other times a bit too energetic) but that's up to you to decide.
