TRC seek new bassist
The London-based hardcore band are looking for a new bass player
London based hardcore outfit TRC have revealed that they are currently on the hunt for a new bass player.
The band, who have been nominated for best UK band at the 2012 Metal Hammer Golden God Awards, are appealing for potential candidates to email in with their applications.
When asked about the line-up change, guitarist Charlie Wilson said that although the band are close with their old bass player, as they are with all their past members, “he lives in Leeds and that put a strain on band activities.”
He added that, “We first and foremost want someone who can play the bass to the level we play our instruments. We don’t want a failed guitar player that jumped to bass ‘cause it was easier – we want someone that lives and breathes the bass like we do with our instruments. They also have to look the part.”
Applicants should also live in, or be able to commute frequently to, London.
If you think you’ve got what it takes email [email protected] with a short CV including a picture, details of any previous band/touring experience, an equipment list and if possible a video of you playing a TRC track from the Bright Lights album.
