Singer seeking...seeking...

obsydion

...seeking good craic and a passion for good music. Basically I'm just looking for someone/some like-minded people who wouldn't mind a jam. Covers to start off with but originals aren't out of the question. I can't write lyrics for ****e though seriously, I'm a scientist, not a poet Like any muscle the voice needs to be exercised and I feel I'll lose what little ability I have if I don't use it

Wanted: Band/Musician, Dublin City Centre
Band/Musician Genre: Acoustic, blues, jazz, alternative.
Band Location: I work on Camden street and live in Ranelagh. I don't have a car so I'd prefer city centre-ish or somewhere I don't have to take multiple buses to get to. If possible:)
Influences: Woah Jaysus. Um, I listen to everything Brutal Technical Death metal to Cheesy 80s. Pretty much everything except country music and...mostly everything on the charts. Oh and dance. Ok I'll stop.
Vocal Influences though: Opeth, Antimatter, Anathema, David Sylvian, Jeff Buckley, Tool (was in a Tool cover band once upon a time), A Perfect Circle, Deftones, Sevendust, Muse, The Police etc.
Positions Available: I doubt that full bands would want anything to do with me unless they thought I fit their description but anybody rock, blues, lounge oriented would be cool. Regarding individual musicians, guitarists, pianists/keyboardists would be the best bet.
Desired Age Range: Mid-20s onwards?
Available Sound Samples: Ok apologies for the ****ty quality but it was recorded on my laptop in my bedroom using Garageband of all things. Also, thin walls so I had to keep my voice down. Excuses excuses eh?

Hey, How goes

Guitarist, 27, Dublin

Influences - The Police, The Smiths, Romeo Void, Soundgarden, Roxy Music, APC, Smashing Pumpkins, Grunge, Qotsa, Desert Sessions, ELO, Queen, Kate Bush, U2 etc.........................

I dont have mp3's but style would be on the lines of The Police, Nirvana'ish/Soundgarden, Romeo Void, but I dont nail myself down to a particular approach.

No band experience, havent read the How to write a Rock Song manual so I dont stay within the parametres of composing, I just play what sounds right and go for it. I dont sing so the material awaits a voice!

I can assure you an alternative sound and a will to give it a proper go.

Cheers.
