KINGDOM OF THE BLIND need:

- Bass player

Contact this band here: dave.cottham@sky.com or ring 07890132197.

We are 'Kingdom of the blind' and we are made up of Ex Broken Silence singer/guitarist Dave Cottham and ex Mad Dog/Picture show drummer Sam Hancock. We're looking for a bass player with lots of attitude who's into grunge/classic rock, somewhere between Nirvana/Cream/Foos etc. Songs written but input welcome on an equal basis. Ideally the right person would also be able to provide backing vocals, but it's not essential. The average age of the band is 28. We practice at Goldie Leigh in Welling every sunday. We've had to stop rehearsing at the moment because we'll only have to go back and teach someone all the material if we keep going.
