  1. If you listen to our song on our web page, that's still the same guy. More suited to rock ballads probably, but we'll throw lots of different styles at him and see how he gets on. I worked in Dyce for two years and used to go to Aberdeen games on saturday, so I know the travelling is a nightmare. But it's worth it to produce quality tunes! We could look at the week about thing too, it's definitely not a problem for me. Fit like is the drummer you ken? Do you play a lot of solos and stuff? I quite like that, hardly ever hear them nowadays! Not really good enough myself for lead like!
  2. If you listen to our song on our web site, that's the singer we have. He's really good. Maybe more suited to ballad type rock but we'll try a few different things, experiment. I worked in Dyce for past 2 years, travelling was a nightmare every day then to see the Dons at Weekends too! IAs I said, if evetyone was happy with things, we could definitely do a week about. Fit like is this drummer you know? Do you play a lot of solos and stuff? I quite like that, just don't really have the ability to do it myself!
  3. Arite min. Yeah we'd be practising in Peterhead , 3 of us stay there, but I mean if worst comes to worst down the line we could practice in Peterhead one week, Aberdeen the next if it works out. Do you drive? We started out as the NT Electros in May 2006, some of the lads from the college decided to form a band, I wanted to be in it so bought a guitar and the lead player taught me. 2 years later, only 2 surviving members. 2 drummers and one lead guitarist later, here we are as Nu Era. I didn't have a singer for the Aberdeen song, wrote it, found a mate to sing it and got him to join us! I'll be writing to suit his voice from now on. 2 years without a singer was a nightmare. The writing bug has hit big time now though! Plenty tunes to write. Do you write as well? Our song is getting played on Waves 101.2 fm this friday breakfast show 6am-10am so listen for it. They want to have us in for an interview some time, so I was gonna record some stuff, just rhythm and vocals on some songs I've been working on to keep the momentum going. Can't wait to get going properly like.
  4. Hi folks. My band Nu Era are based in Peterhead. My name is Stuart, I am 21 years old and have only played guitar for two years. I'm Rhythm. My addiction is pretty strong now though. Everything has just come together in the last 6 months and a lot of hard work has been paying off. I am a very driven and ambitious person and I would like that in anyone who wanted to join Nu Era. We only have one song to date, an Aberdeen footie song, a tribute to the European Adventure! Nu Era <nuera2008> This will be the only footie song I intend in doing, I don't want to be getting labelled anything. I don't want to be restricted creatively. I want to do all types of songs, blues, heavy, indie, you name it, I'll probably have a crack at it. Mostly be Rock like, but you get the idea. I have written a couple of new songs I want to get going with these new tunes as soon as possible. I have a singer and keyboard player (same person) and a bass player. Just need lead and drums. Drummers have been a nightmare so far. Reliability is a must please. Looking for similar ages to ourselves (18-23 ish) and people who'd be willing to make an effort. Our influences include AC/DC, Foo Fighters, Oasis, Stone Roses, Muse and many more. I basically like a bit of everything. Except really dark stuff like Slipknot and extreme metal, but i have no problems with the like of Black Sabbath and Metallica etc. Get in touch if you wanna know more or are interested.

    Drummer wanted

    Yeah I'm looking for a drummer too! Ha. Nightmare.
  7. Just Private Message me back about your thought etc
  8. Do you play Lead? Are you interested in different styles? I don't like the idea of being defied by a genre, I intend to expand my horizon, blues, heavy, indie etc. I play Rhythm Guitar and my band Nu Era need a Lead Guitarist and drummer. Lead Guitarist has just quit becuase of other commitments and we haven't had best of luck with drummers. We're based in Peterhead and our web site Nu Era <nuera2008>. Won't be any more footie tunes though, too much I want to write about.
  9. Yep Peterhead. Where do you stay? Age?
  10. If you're interested in singing for a band, then my band the NT Electros need a singer. Ages of the band range from 16-20 and we have two guitarists, drummer and bass player. Badly needing a singer. Based in Peterhead, formed June 06, but took a while for some of us to learn instruments. Doing covers at the moment, 3 songs on the go. We like Muse, the Kooks, Dream Theater, AC/DC, Goo Goo Dolls, Aeromsith, Killers etc etc.
  11. My band, the NT Electros are looking for a singer. I've posted a topic saying singer wanted a few days ago, its still on the first page. All the band details etc are there. Read it and see if you're interested.
  12. Hey, my name is Stuart and I play guitar in a band called the NT Electros. We are based in Peterhead. Ages in the band range from 16-20. We have a drummer, bass player and two guitarists (one of them being me) We would prefer a singer in that age category, but whether it's male or female we don't mind. Our preferred style of music is rock. We like Muse, the Kooks, Dream Theater, AC/DC, Oasis, All American Rejects and many more. We have been on the go since about June last year but it only really got going about February this year (people taking time to learn instuments etc). We are doing a few covers at the moment, but getting seriously hindered by the lack of a singer so if anyone is interested email me at: shmikes27@hotmail.com.
