    Hello folks,

    We are a male lead singer/guitarist, female piano/synth/vocalist and male bass player.... Looking for a drummer... We're all 25-26, based in Dublin...

    It's all brand new so no myspace but this was my old band, wrote the songs, sang and played myspace.com/waifrock....

    Influences with new band range from Beatles to Arctic Monkeys, Arcade Fire to Bowie..... But that;s just the start....

    Pm if interested in an old jam,

    Paddy

    Arctic Monkeys are one of my favourite bands so elements of them for sure- but also Beatles, Nirvana, Turn, Muse, possibly elements of Razorlight....
    It's going very melodic, clever harmonies, strong rhythms..... The songs thus far are, to my ear, very strong, memorable and I suppose kind of anthemic in places....
    I wanted to use a piano in the band because I think people have overdosed on synth (though i love the way Klaxons use it). It feels like bands are chucking in synths for the sake of it now or because that's what they think people want to hear - it's completely overdone now.

    It's all originals band obviously - wanted to make that clear from my initial post!

    Anyone that fancies a jam, I can assure you we don't bite. Much.

    Paddy :D

    hi, I'm 18, based in Dublin, interested in all sorts of music, but have played in bands doing similar kinds of stuff. Used to play in this band:

    check it out and see if i'd be the kind of drummer you were thinking of.
    Thanks,
