searching for melodic punk musicians

Torrance CA

Description

Early 30s guitarist/bassist/vocalist, just moved to the south bay and looking to get a melodic punk band together. Think more riffs, less solos, hard hitting pocket drumming, ideally a 4-piece. Would prefer to play guitar but would entertain switching on and off on bass with another guitarist. Have done both as well as sang gritty lead, but hoping to find other musicians not afraid of using their own voices. Not looking to quit my day job but willing to put in the time and effort to write, practice, and eventually play out when things get back to normal. Personal influences are Menzingers, Lawrence Arms, Off With Their Heads, Lagwagon, NOFX, Jawbreaker, Dillinger Four, Strike Anywhere. Down for inventive and interesting ideas while still sticking to melodic punk bones.
