Bassist Needed for Gig

Fairfax VA

Description

I have a Valentine’s Day dinner duo gig at a restaurant for guitar and bass from 6pm - 8:30pm or so, (approximately 2hrs 30 minutes). My usual bassist is unavailable for this gig. I prefer a bassist with an upright bass, but bass guitar will work if you’re sufficiently familiar with performing jazz standards. We’ll be performing background music for couples, and families dining at the restaurant. The songs will be jazz standards, with some pop. Some examples of tunes we’ll play include Alone Together, Blue Bossa, Fly Me to the Moon, All the Things You Are, Poinciana, All Blues, Sugar, Mercy, Mercy, Mercy. Pop tunes: Sitting on the Dock of the Bay, I Can See Clearly Now, What a Wonderful World, No Woman, No Cry. Solo ability is a must. Please include your experience/training in your response. Short audition, and at least one rehearsal required. Gig will pay $200.
