Who are we?
We're an enjoyablly chaotic offbeat London-based band influenced by people like Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, Pulp, Belle & Sebastian & various other bands. We've got a few gigs coming up and run our own nights once a month. We also have a single coming out next month on a small independent label and hopefully another singles and an album after that.

What are we looking for:
A new guitarist basically as our current one's leaving soon.

We basically want someone who 'gets' what we're doing and is enthusiastic about the songs, enjoys playing live and feels they can fit in and contribute. If you like doing backing vocals too that's fantastic, although don't worry if you don't want to as other people in the band like doing them. We're all pretty personable and easy to get on with. We have quite a DIY attitude to what we're doing and are more worried about performance than polish, if you see what I mean.

If you feel like this might be right for you either pm me on here, reply to the thread or email me on paulhawkinsmusic@hotmail.co.uk and tell me a bit about yourself and then we'll take it from there.
