Auditions

So as you know a little while ago George left us somewhat in the lurch. We were desperate to get going again but we needed a drummer, so we put the word out. Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, Gumtree, Pornhub etc etc.

After a week or so we had about 15 people get in touch. From those some couldnt commit fully, others said the Wombats were there main influence and others were either too young or old. We ended up with 3 potential new drummers.

The other day we held auditions. I was Simowen Kimmel, Tom was Cheryl Burroles or something and Dean was Deany minogue (thats the best one) and we think we may have found the new drummer. Who we have put through to boot-camp. Fingers crosssed we will be able to unveil our new line up and demos of new songs will start to trickle through.

Will keep you posted.

Stong Arms Cover

Well the summer seems to have left us already and if like us you're being battered by gales and drenched by torrential downpours you may be feeling a bit down in the dumps.

Well our good good friends UTE have done us a cover of our recent smash hit "Strong Arms" and i'm not gonna lie it is beautiful. If this track doesn't make you feel warm and fuzzy inside well frankly you're dead inside.

Oh and whilst you're at it check out there own stuff. www.myspace.com/utetheband

George has left elephants, or so i say. No he has.

If you follow us on twitter or facebook you may have noticed we have been looking for a new drummer This is because George Trevor White has decided to leave the band after almost 2 years.

George felt that he no longer had the passion for the band he once had and could not give the rest of us 100%. So it is with heavy hearts we bid farewell to a great friend and awesome drummer. He has left big shoes to fill (and a massive drum stool) but we wish him all the best with his new band Belingo and hope to play some shows with him soon.

More news on a new drummer coming soon.

See you soon George

Singing Lessons

I thought whilst we're taking a break from the band, it would be a good idea to better myself as a musician and as a singer. So i'm gonna get lessons from this guy..



AWESOME!
