Need drummer for Great American Songbook band

Natick MA

Description

We are pro keys, bass and guitar-looking for a jazz drummer for our regular Thursday night jazz jam. We get together on a regular basis on Thursday 8-1030p in Framingham near Wayland line. (Exit 13 on Pike). The goal of this regular jam is not immediate paying gigs, but we won't turn them down either. We like playing this stuff and want to do it on a regular basis. If and when the gigs happen, cool. Repetoire: Cole Porter George Gershwin Hoagy Carmichael Harold Arlen Lerner and Lowe Richard Rogers Frank Sinatra Tony Bennett However, I will need vocal breaks, so I'd like to do some mellower (for lack of a better word) jazz, like: Wes Montgomery Horace Silver Thelonious Monk _____ We had steady gigs until Covid hit; then they all went away. Now, we're just playing for fun and to keep our chops from going bad, and eventually gigs. Finished basement studio; no problem with parking. Drums are here and available. Here's keyboard guy in action: https://vimeo.com/42888362 I realize this is Herbie Hancock, and not a great american songbook standard! :) When/if I hear from you, I will send samples of me singing and playing great american songbook standards. Please send a clip/mp3 of you playing. Hope to hear from you! Thanks! Mike
