Seeking Versatile Electric Bass Player

Denver CO

Description

I am currently wrapping up my solo album and have wanted to join a successful band as a lead guitar player, rhythm comper, and back up singer BUT have realized after doing some networking that forming a new would allow for all new players to have greater collaboration and collectible input into the music. I am well steeped in music theory, jazz and blues application on the guitar, and songwriting and have been playing music in gigging bands for 15 years. I am 30 years old. Seeking a bass player who can bring feel, groove, and one who has a finesse. Seeking bass player who are 30 or younger, who have incredible skill and experience playing in bands. The aim is to form a band that plays most original music but like most bands that start up, rely on some covers to get going. I have about 20 original full songs with vocals, lyrics, and parts as a starting point and would love to work with musicians who are equally interested in songwriting together and who have a craft for groove and who emphasize songwriting material that can be performed live with high energy. I believe that bands should be made of best friends and friends are the family you choose. I am committed to teamwork and fun through work, and that music can save your mortal soul. My main influences are The Beatles, Phish, The Dead, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Dire Straits, the Who, String Cheese, Steely Dan, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Goose, Neil Young, Steve Winwood, Phish Floyd, Phish, Dire Straits, Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, Paul Simon, State Radio, Rush, Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, Herbie Mann and more I am seeking a bass player to start a band and am seeking those who are serious about playing but who are fun and loving. Seeking those with professional-level gear and musicianship. Those who have reliable transportation and who are kind and competitive at the same time. If you are interested in links to videos that showcase my lead and rhythm guitar playing, singing, and stage presence, be sure to send links to music and preferably videos of you as well. Cheers, love, and best wishes
