Bands, good music and some freebies

Soooo I'm in a band, 2 in fact. Considering they are now both active I reckon I should do a wee blog on them.

PROJECT No1   (formally known as The Watershed)

We are a 5 piece indie/rock band based in Warrington in the North West of England. We play our own original material drawing influences from alternative/indie rock, britpop and grunge.

It's very ballsy grunge flavoured indie rock. I split lead and rhythm guitar with another guitarist and the lead singer/rhythm guitarist. They've been together as a four piece in one way or another for a while, but I was brought in to give the songs some extra Oompf. We have our first gig at Manchester Academy on February 23rd. We are also getting afew tracks down professionally recorded next week... we'll be touring Japan in no time!

The Watershed - Jamming at Richmonds club

The Diamond Bays

We are a 5 piece alternative rock band from Warrington. Elements of Rock and rock, blues rock, folk and pop give the sound a great foot tapping and dancing quality.

Originally I was going to form a cover band with my friend Chris, but his friend had this project on the go, I was asked to go and jam, and now I'm the rhythm guitarist. we've done a few very well received local gigs and have many more booked. We are in Manchester at the Dry Bar February 25th
