Yo.

Two 20-something experienced musicians (guitar player & drummer) seeking somewhat-experienced bass player for 3-piece 90's indie power-pop/punk band.

Extremely specific influences include...
- Jawbox
- Jimmy Eat World (Clarity-era)
- The Jealous Sound
- Cap'n Jazz/Joan of Arc/Owls
- The Casket Lottery
- Lifetime
- Braid
- Juno

We're both in another full-time touring band, but we'd like to take this semi-seriously...
with this project we want to...
- play shows
- make a DIY record
- have fun
- drink beer

We have a jam-spot, and a full bass-rig in addition to guitar and drums (bring your own bass preferably),
we need someone who...
- is a good bass player
- has a good singing voice
- ISN'T flakey
- IS kickass

Hmmm.. if you'd be a little flexible on the style I might be into this .. I'm into more of a Muse / Project 86 sound as far as bass playing goes (Lots of synthy fuzz and more aggressive distortion sounds on my bass). I've got my own bass rig and stuff, though, which I'd rather make use of.

Style wise I'd like to do something maybe a tad more post-modern .. I dunno. There are possibilities anyway.

hey. I love braid and cap'n jazz. I'm not good at singing while I play, I own a bass but it's the instrument I'm the worst at, and I don't drink. so I guess I just want to wish you luck on this project since I didn't even realize there were other fans of this style in victoria. let me know when you guys are playing a show.

oh shit, I just realized that I know you already. hey miles. uhh, I hope everything is well? - Sun, 9 Dec 2007 1:23am Edited: Sun, 9 Dec 2007 1:25am
