Looking for back up band - *

Virginia Beach VA

Description

Hi there, That is a title that might push the average musician away and it's understood. In no way did I ever want to be asking for a back-up band. But I'm really looking for Drums, Keys and Bass to complete a combination Cover and Original band. Not looking for super specifics, but really need seasoned professional players who can learn music pretty quick, especially original songs. Was ready to leave town in 2017-2018 to tour and play in the south, since that time because of COVID things kind of as you know got real thin. During that time I release another EP, and 3 Lo-fi Hip Hop albums. (those were instrumental) but I have a new EP of about 8 songs that I'd love help with performing as well as cover songs. I really want to do something different as in put together a real band show. That would be the objective to this situation. You must be able to travel, have solid pro equipment and williness to learn up to 40 - 50 covers songs. I'm not looking for that right off, and would be happy to complete 10-20 tracks. I plan on playing immediately when we have at least 15-20 complete, and have a few places (even in the south) that we can split gigs or open for. (and I'm not talking about, for no money) These would be decent paid shows. The music is vartiey of modern rock sounds and dance/urban beats. Artist that you might be comparable would be Maroon 5, Imagine Dragons, Xambassadors, and bands along those lines. (Hybrid sounds) Heavy guitars in some places, but also beat infused music urban influence. Some stuff also gets really acoustic based too. Would really like to find people that may have played together already, but open to finding each person too. So if you like what's been said, feel free to reach out. Again, this is not for weekend warrior, part time musicians with major obligations, if that is you.. then this isn't your band situation. If you are a FreeBird, and a real pro player.. I'd like to hear from you. (the Road is calling!) Thanks! -MD Two-Zero-4-1-Seven-7-Four
