Seek members for vocal-oriented rock duo or trio

Rochester MA

Description

Experienced gigging vocalist/guitarist looking to form duo or trio to perform vocal-oriented rock/pop/country/alt-rock/folk cover repertoire in SE Mass and Upper Cape bars, restaurants, breweries, private parties. I am looking for other musicians who are comfortable singing harmony and lead vocals. Ideally, start with a core duo consisting of a singer/bassist and myself, but open to other possibilities. Besides singing, I play acoustic & electric guitar, mandolin, harmonica and some bass and keys. For repertoire, think of any group from 60's to now which are vocal harmony-oriented. Here are a few examples: Beatles, Little Big Town, Doobie Brothers, Guster, Crosby, Stills, & Nash, Desert Rose Band, Dada, Fleetwood Mac, Simon & Garfunkel, Lady A, Bread, etc. Repertoire to be somewhat flexible and customized to expected audience tastes. Instrumental virtuosity is a bonus, but vocals are primary. Practices/rehearsals are once a week (weeknight), gigs as often as once a month (maybe twice during summer). I have a rehearsal space in Rochester with P/A and other equipment, but am also willing to travel locally for rehearsal. After initial ramp-up all members need to be prepared to invest time in the business end (getting gigs, marketing, social media, etc), not just the music. Please message me if you’d like to discuss or learn more.
