It looks that we end our long quest for a drummer for Snakebite. We had two concerts in June and two more planned in July, this is from our second in June




Feel free to use this idea. After the singer says, "singing songs about the southland" transition into some sicilian folk song for about 8 bars and then go back in to Sweet Home. Or not, but keep up the good work either way.
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

The drummer in my main band was up for a rare visit, so we taught him some new songs! We usually record our rehearsals on one phone, so I had the bold idea to use two phones in different parts of the room to make a crude stereo image. I quite like the results.

Those came out well for phone recordings I wish the vocals were a little stronger.
I liked 'em!

Thanks! I was "ripping the heed aff it" on my P Bass in those clips. The vocals always suffer in the rehearsal room. The PA/speaker setup is always poor. They use head-height monitors on poles, pointing right back at the microphones. This causes feedback unless you tilt the speakers off at weird angles and EQ out any problem frequencies. That, and you're singing into SM58s that look like they've been up a dog's butt, so you don't want to get too close!

This is from yesterday, with a different room:



My rig was very random. I borrowed an Ibanez Artcore bass with two small hunbuckers. This was running into a Boss ODB clone, then into a Ernie Ball HD-500 'Audiophile' combo amp. It had a tube in it, and sounded boxy on every setting.

Again the vocals sort of take a bath. Again we were teaching the drummer the song as we went along.

I really like the lush chordal structure - very British! You're a harmonious bunch.

My old singer just posted this one from the past.  I sometimes forget how much I loved this band.

Nice well crafted song. Early 80s?

Did some covid recording.  Have been enjoying jamming at home on this Lana Del Rey cover, and decided to lay it down.  Synths phoned in by a good bud/exbandmate.  No bass in it tho, sorry- is that against the rules? Warning; gratuitous whammy bar abuse.

I could come up with a couple of suitably desolate bass lines for that one, Jake!

Nicely done, now where can I slit my wrists?

This is from a little over a year ago. This song will be released as a single in the next month, and the covid delayed album should be out in November.

A Telecaster bass with a Thunderbucker 66S is the best of both worlds.

Brad, your bass looks and sounds good, but it's not a hollowbody!  :)

I really like her voice.
