Rock band auditioning bass and keyboard players

San Jose CA

Description

We're an established classic rock/country/blues fusion band. We're independent originals band, preparing to go back into studio and record our second album, is looking to audition keyboard and bass players. Our bass player has moved on and current keys player is comfortable in either role, so we're auditioning both roles looking for the right fit. We gig regularly but focus on shows where we can play primarily original material. We do mix in some cover songs but this isn't a juke box band. We're about the original songs. We have two song writers in the band but welcome new contributions that align with our style. We've received critical acclaim in several music magazines and have an original song under consideration for the American Song Writers Association award for 2021. IMPORTANT: We don't layer in studio work. We do it the old school way and record live and overdub. I mention this because it's not negotiable. This is how Lynyrd Skynyrd, Led Zeppelin and The Eagles recorded and it's how we do it. If that isn't for you, this isn't your project. We aren't a touring band but do have aspirations to perform in festivals that could be anywhere in the country and to play out of town gigs (Reno, Sacramento, LA, etc.) so some ability to travel is required. Audition will consist of learning 3 original songs prior to audition and performing with the band. Auditions will be held Tuesday 11/2 between 6-9PM in San Jose. Please message me if interested and we can send you our catalog of published songs to listen to and the 3 we want you to learn for the rehearsal. Happy to address any questions you may have in email.
