Bromley, London
56-65 yr old Male
Standard:Good
My Genres: Indie, Rock, Pop, Reggae, Folk, Punk, Country.
I play: Bass Guitar, Rhythm Guitar, Drums, Producer.
I'm looking for people who play: Song Writer, Lead Vocals, Keyboards, Lead Guitar, Drums.
About me: Old fella. Primarily a bass player, but I also play (in order of ability) guitar, drums and a bit of two fingered keys.
45-ish years of gigging and recording experience, including 25 years of home recording using various DAWs. Did I mention I’m old? 😉
Looking for anything original. Don’t mind playing the odd cover, but not interested in the “wonderwall and mr brightside circuit”. Happy to rehearse regularly, but select (paid) gigs only. If your focus is on writing, recording and the occasional showcase gig (in that order) that could be a good fit.
For a few examples of my studio work, I’m on Soundcloud as JohnD2000.

About me: Hello!
We're a three piece band (Guitar, Bass, Drums) who practise in East London, Homerton.
Style is broadly indie, rock, prog, with wide and varied influences including math and jazz. Writing process is more based on following the vibe of each song rather than locking to a particular style.
We have been playing together ~6 years in our former band Company Man (https://open.
Contact Me /2UBchupgYrcqKbuoZqYQFF?si=TTSS_mYDRIC-5U_qZ6LbLQ)
Our singer has had to move out the area, so we have reformed and begun writing new tracks over the past 8 months - currently we have 5 or 6 in varying stages of completion ready for a vocalist to help mould and finalise these.
We are a fully collaborative band who enjoy the writing process in the room as a group.
About you
- We are looking for a singer with confidence, ideally a female vocalist based on bands we like, but any and all applications considered!
- Someone eager to get involved with the writing process to mould the songs to fit your vocal lines.
- If you play guitar or keys, it may be beneficial to help with writing, but not necessary - more-so based on your preference.
- Available to practise in Homerton once every week or two (Generally Tue,Wed or Thurs, based on our schedules, but fairly flexible).
- Looking to the future, we are keen to play live shows, so willingness and availability.
Any questions please fire across!

Standard:Professional
My Genres: Hard Rock, Rock, Punk, Indie, Funk, Heavy metal, Pop.
I play: Drums, Percussion.
About me: Professional Drummer – Based in East London | Available for Live Performances, Touring & Studio Work
My name is Sergio — I’m a professional drummer with over 18 years of experience, currently based in East London. I’m available for hire across the UK and internationally for live shows, tours, and studio sessions, and I would also consider joining a project if its something that I truly like.
I started playing drums from an early age and began teaching at just 16 at NDKF Fundación in Avilés, Asturias. I hold a Grade 8 Drum certification from the London Rock School and spent my early years performing with multiple bands throughout Spain before relocating to London in 2017.
Since then, I’ve established myself within the UK and European live music scene, performing regularly in London venues and touring extensively. Major festival and live performance highlights include:
Reading & Leeds Festival , Boomtown Fair , Pukkelpop (Belgium)
Outbreak Festival (Manchester), The Great Escape (Brighton), Focus Wales (Wrexham), Are You Listening? Festival (Reading), Stag & Dagger (Edinburgh & Glasgow), Supersonic (Paris), Sinister Festival (The Hague), Wurlitzer Ballroom (Madrid), ISC (Bern), Barrios Live (Milan), Fifty Lab (Brussels), Hit the City (Eindhoven) ... etc.
I also had the opportunity to support Limp Bizkit at their headline show in Gunnersbury Park, London in August 2023
From intimate venues to large-scale festivals, I bring reliability, energy, and professionalism to every performance. I'm confident across various styles, quick to adapt, and committed to delivering a tight, powerful performance every time — whether live on stage or in the studio.
If you're looking for a solid and versatile drummer to elevate your live set, tour, or session project, feel free to get in touch.
