Bassist Needed for Progressive Rock Band

Springfield VA

Description

Have you been fed up with the music scene? Have simple 3 chord songs with 2 note melodies got you down? Have your bass playing abilities been thoroughly underwhelmed time and time again? Well, look no further! The Satellite Salesmen are looking for a bassist! Come join a band that mixes driving pop/rock melodies with complexity and texture. Come join a band that's not afraid to switch up genres mid-song. Come join a band where the question "wait, what time signature is this part in?" becomes a weekly occurrence! We feature two vocalists, lead & rhythm guitar, synth, and drums. We need a bassist that's good with transitions, knows when to stay in the pocket, and who's got the skill to let loose. We're in our 30s and typically practice evenings during the week. We are all laid back and have a strong focus on collaboration. We're planning to record and play live shows soon. So, if any of this sounds remotely appealing to you, you should have already contacted! I can send a sample song to give you a small idea of what we're about. Influences: Porcupine Tree, King Crimson, Tool, Pink Floyd, Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer, The Mars Volta, Coheed & Cambria, as well as various Pop, Jazz, and Electronica artists.
