    Looking to start a ska band in Dublin (were in Glasnevin area in case that matters).

    Guitar, Bass, Vox all sorted, by 3 lads that have just very recently met.

    Looking for Brass Section, Trumpets, Trombone and Sax would be great.

    Also a drummer, have a fill in drummer if required for the moment.

    Were are all around 30 but age unimportant.

    We have a free rehearsal place available most evening with PA, Mics etc and one lad is a Sound Engineer.

    We have kit here also, drummer just needs breakables.

    Influences, Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution, Streetlight Manifesto, Hub City Stompers. Also stuck up a link to a really dirty 20s big band sound we are open to trying.

    Bb Baritone (not dissimilar in tone to a trombone)! Although guitars in C, Eb sax and Bb brass could be some fun musical mathematics!

    A little. Sax player played in a 2 tone band. Myself and the bass player play in a punk band and we slip some ska in.

    Let me know if youre interested. We are jamming in Glasnevin in the evening. Generally Wed at around 7 ish. If your stuck and near by i drive and im sure the other lads wouldnt mind picking you up if your in the area.

    Not looking for a doctor in trumpet playing in case youre a beginner. Just be able to follow a few notes to start with.
