Instrumental funk jazz keyboard wanted

Meets

Stockbridge GA

Description

Drummer, bassist and guitarist looking for a keyboard player for primarily instrumental funk/jazz. If your main interest is getting paid, we're probably not a good fit. So, now that we've lost 95% of the keyboardists out there, here's some background... We are seasoned musicians who enjoy playing just for the enjoyment of playing. While we'd love to get a setlist down and play some gigs, we realize there is virtually no market for instrumental funk/jazz music, so we've pretty much abandoned the idea of gigging for low committment weekend jams at my jam room in Stockbridge. I've posted links to some tunes we're interested in covering. We have a PA and keyboard (Roland VR-09 combo) in place, so no equipment is required, but you're welcome to bring whatever you want. Think: Jimmy Smith, Booker T & the MG's, The Meters, Medeski Martin and Wood, Herbie Hancock, The New Mastersounds, Galactic, etc.. Here are some tunes from our short list: The Chicken https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vn0w-zHwFw MRG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p37y3vqP_DM Little Walter Rides Again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyPOiGjy6KQ Way Out West https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TOfFrP_TXWg Cissy Strut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXI5Nuz6OHg The Vandenburg Suite https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9A0l4j0Ez6M We are open to just about anything funky, including originals. We are not pro-level musicians, but we are experienced, flexible, and there's not an asshole in the bunch. We enjoy the camaraderie almost as much as the music. Please contact me if this is something you might be interested in. Thanks for reading!
