WANTED: Rock Covers Bass player

Bethesda MD

Description

We were a Rock Cover band that was ready to EXPLODE into the DC Metro Rock scene, then COVID… Singer, Guitarist, Drummer (3) over 50, “other” guitarist 30s (not “boomer”). We need a local, hard rocking jazz bass player, capable of doing Zep’s John Paul Jones, Who’s John Entwistle, RHCP’s Flea, to the “simple” groove of Radar Love -- and every rock groove below. Our genre was originally only hit 70s+ rock-covers-songs that chics dig, had a dance-beat to get people dancing and singing along, fit my vocals and 2 Guitar - 1 bass band. We found that rocking some Who, Zeppelin, and Aerosmith went over very, very well, so now that too!! No Deep Tracks or Originals. We are/were looking to gig once to twice a month. No COVID shots + 2 weeks, please do not reply. Must be able to learn 5 songs per week minimum. If you do not dig the “as-is” of band and/or cannot handle my founder/leader/gig getter veto power, please do not reply. If in other band(s), or will need to be cause we do not gig enough, I am very sorry, this is not a fit. REQUIREMENT: Please send video / audio. No video, please do not reply. FYI: If videos are solely 4/4 measure blues bands, your first audition will be filming yourself (Video Camera can be focused on bass - no face required (intro with face would be nice)) of you playing bass with bass-less track of Led Zeppelin on The Ocean (4/4 7/8), Won't Get Fooled Again with the Who, and beginning into first verse groove of Radar Love. Long sample of each will suffice. If you could through in the key riff of RHCP Suck My Kiss and a lick or two of the Pop-Bass blues riff of Little Miss – Spin Doctors it would be appreciated.
