We’re three old rockers (guitar, bass and drums) who have got together with the idea of playing a mix of original stuff and some classic rock covers and we’re looking for a like-minded vocalist. As we are old rockers that’s likely to be the flavour of the material we write. We currently meet up at the Forum in Darlington as that’s about central for us. I’m happy to meet and see if anything gels. I can be contacted on 07955 159121.
