The Wurzels are on crack.

Not true - The Wurzels are partial to amphetamines

Tommy Banner used to do crack, but he felt that it was spoiling his looks.



He's only 37 you know.

I play in originals band "The Oceans Above", just been in the studio recording two singles the first of which should be released next month. A couple upcoming gigs - 26th July Birmingham O2 Academy3, 29th July Dublin Castle, London, 2nd Aug The Racehorse, Northampton.

Great to see all these Basschatters in bands, I'll have to keep an eye out for any of you playing near me!

Delicious Cake - half covers (Funk/Soul/Rn'B/Disco/Rock) and half our own Funk/Rock material depending on the venue. No website/FB/Soundcloud as yet cos we're only just up and running.
Tommani - Electronica outfit with tunes based around traditional Japanese folk music (yes I know it sounds odd!) Signed to Rock Aye Records, the clips on the [url="https://soundcloud.com/rock-aye-records"]soundcloud [/url]page are from the debut album "Banzai Bushi". The live show consists of two drummers, guitarist triggering samples, me on bass with various effects, didgeridoo and vocals.
Occasionally also play for Red2Red - Reggae/Ska/Lovers Rock: [url="https://myspace.com/red2red"]https://myspace.com/red2red[/url]

I'm in three bands:

[url="http://thelightning.co.uk"]http://thelightning.co.uk[/url] - The Lightning, mainly classic rock covers but some originals, fronted by Mrs Zero

[url="http://spiralsix.co.uk"]http://spiralsix.co.uk[/url] - Spiral Six, rock covers from 60s to present day

[url="http://mixedherbsband.co.uk"]http://mixedherbsband.co.uk[/url] - Mixed Herbs, female-fronted club/functions band that isn't doing an awful lot of clubs or functions ATM

Mrs Zero and I do the occasional bit of duetry as Second Time Round: [url="http://secondtimeround.org.uk"]http://secondtimeround.org.uk[/url]

Hmmm, better remove the ceilidh band from my sig...

Nation Stack is my main band.

My current session acts includes Michelle Weeks, Stephanie Cooke, Justine Hattams, Andy Hartley, Antonic, Mitch Matlock, Andrea Love. Yes, I work for a lot of women!

All my bands feature women too, I'm not sure I'd want to work with a male lead vocalist again :D

As if anyone doesn't know, my main band is [b]Kit Richardson [/b] ;) Kit's music is quirky, theatrical pop, with guitar, bass, drums, two violins, and Kit on piano and vocal, we use a synth too for some songs. Links in my signature.

I also play bass for one of Transglobal Underground's satellite bands, [b]London Zulu[/b]. It's mostly Zulu township songs sung over Transglobal Underground's funky electronica production. Full band, drums, bass, keys, percussion, sax, vocals mostly sung in Zulu. This is a live number from last year if you want to know what this sounds like [url="http://soundcloud.com/silddx/london-zulu-may-2012-umlhalho"]http://soundcloud.co...y-2012-umlhalho[/url]

I play electric and acoustic guitar for [b]Sheema Mukherjee[/b], she's a classically trained sitarist, and bassist, and composer who has a great list of touring and collaboration credits, Courtney Pine, Sir John Taverner, Olympics commissions, Cornershop, Noel Gallagher, Page and Plant, Transglobal Underground, The Imagined Village .. She's an amazing musician, it's a great honour to be working with her. We are recording her album at the moment, it should be out near the end of the year. [s]She'll also be touring with Hogarth/Barbieri in late summer on bass and sitar[/s]. EDIT: Oh, they have just cancelled the tour. Here she is with Imagined Village ..

It has its pro's and con's! But, I admit that I prefer with female leads too.

Apart from the man himself, does anyone know who JTUK plays for? I've seen lots of posts from him about various gigs but not the name of the band and I don't think there's a link on his sig.

:) He's very quiet about his band isn't he. There are a few people on here whose bands I'm intrigued by but who are very quiet about them.

+1 there's a few lurkers out there who never give away too much info on their projects... just the occasional hint at greatness.

:D yes, they are not actually quiet about their bands, they talk about them a lot, they just never let you know who the band is.

My main band is Hustler, standard pub covers http://www.fb.com/hustler.rock

Then there's the 80s hard rock tribute band, no name as yet, but we will be exploding in spandex and aquanet on your doorsteps very soon...

Also trying to put together a new originals band, but we're suffering from member shortage though (phnarr phnarr...) :huh:
