London-based indie folk/Americana band seeking bassist and drummer
We're Deer Park, a London-based band consisting of two Irishmen and an Aussie. Our bassist has switched to guitar and our drummer left to join Teleman so we're currently looking for a new bassist and a new drummer on a permanent basis. We've released one album and one EP and have a new EP coming out soon. Once the line-up is sorted, we're then going to start work on the second album. We've had interest from several labels and management companies in the US and UK and plan to tour as much as we can off the back of the new releases. We rehearse most weeks in a lovely little place in Stoke Newington and have toured the UK and Ireland several times over the last four years.
What we'd really love is someone who has an appreciation for the same music that inspires us. That includes bands like Wilco, The Hold Steady, Okkervil River, The Band, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, The War On Drugs, The National, Townes Van Zandt, Gram Parsons and lots more. If you can sing harmonies, that would be a bonus but not a necessity. It would also be brilliant if you can play keys too. We put a lot of importance on being friends as well as bandmates so it'd be good if you're up for drinking together as well as playing music together. We find the two go hand in hand.
Get in touch if the above sounds like you.
Cheers!
Mark, Ryan and Ian
