Singers and Strings Wanted to start New Sea Shanty/Folk Project

Cleveland OH

Description

Baritone singer with experience playing in front of crowds looking to start a new folk project along the lines of The Clancy Brothers (4 voices minimal instruments), but with more of a focus on Maritime Songs and Shanties than Irish Songs (but we can throw a few of those in). So I'm looking for a few other singers and/or a guitarist and maybe a Banjo or Mandolin player who can do backing vocals. I'm a 40 something small business owner with and a family man, so I'm not looking to tour the world. Just looking for a fun side project with good people. No egos. No Judgement. NO POLITICS! This is to be a fun, stress relieving project. I'm much better at singing Lead or in unison than I am at harmonies, but I'm willing to try on a few tunes if you're patient with me. I've fronted a few other folk type bands, and even a metal band in the past. Looking for great, easy going people. Personality is more important than skill, but I guess it's good if you can carry a tune or play an instrument ;) I'm not perfect and I don't expect others to be so. I believe that every band has to find their unique sound as they go. If this interests you, please drop me a line and we can meet via Zoom, or grab a coffee some weekend. This ad might be a duplicate, but please respond to this rather that the other, as I think I messed up the email, so I won't see the response.
