Keyboard Player Wanted "Yacht Rock" style start-up

Pasadena CA

Description

The Concept – “Yacht Rock" AKA: West Coast Soft Rock from the mid 70s to mid 80s. There are a few bands out there doing this “yacht rock thing” but there’s room for another one. I don’t write music, but if you write music in the style of any of these artists, it would be cool to do some originals as well. I believe there is a good market for this type of band. Here's a great example of what I'm looking to do - look up Hindley Street Country Club on Youtube - or better yet here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/c/theHindleyStreetCountryClub/videos You may already be aware of this band - this is what I'm looking to put together. If you like a lot of these bands / artists, then let’s get this going: Ambrosia, AWB, Beach Boys, Bee Gees, Stephen Bishop, Jackson Brown, Bobby Caldwell, Carpenters, Bill Champlin, Chicago, Christopher Cross, England Dan and John Ford Coley, Paul Davis, Doobie Brothers, Eagles, Earth Wind and Fire, Donald Fagen, Firefall, Fleetwood Mac, David Foster (I like pretty much everything DF does), Kevin Gilbert / Toy Matinee, Andrew Gold, Jay Graydon, Hall and Oates, Don Henley, Al Jarreau, Elton John, Journey, Chaka Khan, Carole King, Little River Band, Kenny Loggins, Steve Lukather, Michael McDonald, Mr Mister, Orleans, Pablo Cruise, David Pack, Richard Page, Pages, Player, Jeff Porcaro, Steve Porcaro, Mike Porcaro, Lee Ritenour, Linda Ronstadt, Leo Sayer, Boz Scaggs, Seals and Crofts, Sneaker, Starland Vocal Band, Steely Dan (MY favorite :-), Sting, Supertramp, James Taylor, Toto (my other favorite), Tower of Power, To, Gino Vannelli, Roger Voudouris, Stevie Wonder, 10CC. The Goal: Private party, corporate party, wedding gigs where we can make AT LEAST $300 per person. NOT club gigs that pay $300 for the whole band (AKA: crap ;-) – a few here and there are OK as paid rehearsals or if an opportunity comes up. The lineup: guitar / bass (I’m on bass and BG vocals) / keyboards / drums / horns as needed. If you can also sing lead and/or backup = that's a plus :-)
