Successful Established Cover Band Needs Bass Player ASAP

Southport NC

Description

We’re a well-established, popular four-piece cover band that primarily plays 50s and 60s pop and rock along with a few similar 70s songs. We would not want to/do not want to make any changes to this song mix formula that has worked very successfully for us. We currently have about 90 songs on our roster and are continually adding more. I am rhythm guitarist/lead vocalist and in my early 60s. Our drummer/lead vocalist and our lead guitarist are both in their early 70s. Most of our gigs are/have been in the Southport area, but we have also played in Leland and Wilmington. We currently have gigs scheduled in all three of those locations, with we’re sure, more coming. We rehearse just outside of Southport. We usually get about $100/hr. for gigs, but from time to time, we also play benefits for free, and some gigs, just for tips. We play primarily and overwhelmingly for fun, not for money. We just unexpectedly learned that our current bass player is moving to South Carolina next month, so we are in need of a new bass player ASAP. We currently have gigs scheduled through October, If EVERYTHING you’ve read above would work for you, we may be interested in auditioning you. And again, we play 50s, 60s and 70s rock and pop, and are not interested in adding any other type of material. We'll look forward to hearing from like-minded players.
