Dreampop Band Seeking Drummer

Arlington VA

Description

Hi! I'm a vocalist and "band leader" of a DC band. Our original sound is best described as dreamy indie-pop with 80s synth-pop and new-wave influences. Our general set-up right now is one vocal (through an effects processor), 1 guitar, 1 bass, 1 bass synth, another synth, and either a drum machine/sample pad, and/or tracks through Ableton. We're seeking a 4th member to focus on occasional live drums, but mostly to handle the triggering of said sample pads, with the ability to play along to a click for entire live sets (with in-ears). We're looking for someone who has experience with these things, who preferably already has the gear with these capabilities, and hopefully someone who isn't already in 5 bands! Our schedule isn't super jam packed, but we have shows lined up, and are currently working on an album to be released in the spring/summer. I live in Fairfax, and practice with drums can happen here, but my guitarist and bassist both live in DC. We tend to practice maybe every 2 weeks, and like to create sets with different instrumentation capabilities to cater to any kind of show/venue, so some gigs will just be electronic, some will be a mix of both acoustic and electronic drums. If this interests you, check out my music, and let's chat! - Ari @Ari.Voxx
