Hyde & Beast Need You!! (if you play trumpet)

Hyde & Beast – The Futureheads’ Dave Hyde and ex-Golden Virgins’ drummer Neil Bassett - are offering fans the opportunity of a life time. They are looking for trumpet-playing fans to join them onstage during their UK tour which kicks off on Sunday in Newcastle! The band are after a different player for each night, and would like them to accompany them during performances of their recent single, ‘Never Come Back’.

Neil ‘Beast’ Bassett explained,"If you or someone you know can blow a mean horn then get in touch. We will get you and a mate into the show for free; we can have a little practice in soundcheck and then play the show. Should be a blast!"

To apply, simply send your name, contact details and the date you would like to play to hydeandbeast@hotmail.co.uk along with a confirmation that you have a trumpet you're able to use. The band will get back to those selected to play with more information. You can see the video for ‘Never Come Back’ here:
