Hi,

I'm putting a new surf instrumentals band together and looking for an organ/piano/keyboard player to complete the line up which currently consists of drums, bass, rythym and lead guitars.
We write and play original tunes with some scope for the odd cover here and there.
Based in Bristol UK so ideally looking for someone fairly local for a rehearsal once every couple of weeks and regular shows.

Please get in touch if you want to have a jam some time.

Cheers,

Mike

Wish I still lived in Bath. I'd give you a holler for sure.
Good luck!

Bath is beautiful, yes, but it’s not Bristol. I am somewhat biased, I have to admit.

California is where I was born. Loved growing up there. Such a beautiful state. Lived in Oregon for a few years too. Great memories

I prefer Bristol to Bath. I have fun memories of travelling up to Bristol to Sk8 & Ride on a Sunday to ride the vert ramp, occasionally popping over to Bedminster for some concrete fix.

I never had a dull night out in Bristol, I've always found it a friendly, fun place and miss it since my friend moved off to France.

Good luck with the band - we're based down in Plymouth

Thanks. Hoping to be up and gigging in a few months.

I have lived in both Bath and Bristol. Two very different cities, for sure. I think I prefer Bristol. Well, I actually live in Keynsham so I'm kind of in between now!

Digging the Waterboarders by the way.

PS, I too spent much of my teen years skating down at Dean Lane! Great times.

Uh oh. I didn't mean to cast aspersions on Bristol. I only made it as far as Bath on my UK trip. I'm sure I'd love Bristol too. Actually, anywhere I can get real cask ale is a paradise to me
