Modern Brass/Street Band looking for Brass Players/Additional Drummers

Greenfield MA

Description

Update: Band has played some gigs, and 8 solid members (2 trumpets, 2 trombones, 1 tenor sax, 1 bari sax, sousaphone, drums Still could use another trumpet or trombone player, or if you play other brass too! (tuba/sousaphone, mellophone, alto horn, etc.). You can have any level of committment from "just-checking-it-out" to full-fledge band geek.We typically do full group rehearsals only in preparation for gigs. The thing is designed so people can mostly practice at home using the sheet music/demos, since scheduling/travel can be tricky. It's also on a gig-by-gig basis, so no total commitment is necessary beyond being able to play the music. We have picked up a main drummer but with more of them we could shuffle drummers between gigs or go to a separate bass/snare drum setup where we could march! I have up on a Google Drive various demos of pieces I've arranged as well as relevant sheet music that I'd love to share with any interested parties! Just shoot me a message with your email address so I can send you the links. The idea for this band is as a live group, a high energy kind of party thing doing arranged pieces, which as it stands so far are mostly covers of NES/Sega era video game music, pop hits from the 2000s, 80s and 90s, but with brass and drums and changed grooves. We also do some more modern brass band stuff (New Orleans/Balkan/Jazz/etc) and have an original song with more on the way. on instagram secret_bonus_mission and also on facebook if you want to check out some video/audio of us playing!
