Guitarist seeks vocalist/musicians for atmospheric/minimal indie (East London)
Hello. I play guitar and I've written some songs for a new project. I'd like to find some people to help get them to a point where we can play them live and record.
Some demos are on Soundcloud here: http://snd.sc/Y5t2tS
They're quite rough, but they should give you an idea of what I'm aiming for. Genre-wise I guess they're some kind of atmospheric/minimal indie but there's some post-rock/ambient/math/post-hardcore influences in there as well.
I think they need vocals. I'm open to other ideas but I was thinking something rant/talk-y, a bit spoken word, in the style of mewithoutyou or La Dispute, might work.
The set-up on the demos is pretty much just two guitars, bass and drums, so on top of a vocalist I'm looking for an additional guitarist, a bassist and a drummer.
Here are some references for the vocals I mentioned:
mewithoutyou - Torches Together

I'm based in Hackney and I'm 26, so someone in/around their mid-20s would probably be best. Drop me a mail if you're interested.
Thanks.
