  1. Hi, we are looking for a bass player (male or female) to join us as a three-piece outfit for paid gigs in Kent, South East! We need a bass player (aged 25/45 approx) with plenty of experience, a broad & varied musical taste, the ability to play with fingers & pick, and also in a dub style. Vocals are a definite advantage, and must also have own gear & transport. I (drums/vocals) am based in Deal, Kent, and the guitarist/vocals in Chislehurst, Kent. We rehearse at a studio in the Sittingbourne area. Here is a list of material (see below) we will be working on. Most of the songs will be played in our own style, as we want to develop a presence and a sound that will set us apart from the average cover bands. We intend to gig as often as possible (including festivals, functions, weddings), and already have contacts, gigs waiting. If you are genuinely interested in this kind of thing please call Darren on 07747 065967 or Richard on 07541 047665.
