Musicians seniors wanted for oldies band

Meets

Cold Spring Harbor NY

Description

Looking for retired seniors who are musicians for a band interested in playing 1950s and 1960s rock n roll such as the Beatles, Elvis, Rascals, Stones, even maybe some doo wop if the band has a sufficient number of good vocalists. Prefer retired senior people who are my contemporary, played this genre of music in the past and have the time and desire to get together regularly to practice. The primary goal is to have fun but be good enough to play some gigs eventually. I play rhythm guitar and can sing lead vocals. Looking for a drummer, bass and lead guitar, keyboard and even a saxophone player. Being able to sing lead or background vocals well is a plus. I am in the Huntington area. You Must have the time, dedication and willingness to practice regularly. If you have not played in a band in awhile but still practice on your own that is fine. My idea is for each member to make a list of about 10 songs from this era for starters that they may already know in terms of the chord structure that they wish to perform who can teach the other members how to perform them. The first five songs to learn would be one from each member’s list and the band would continue learning more songs using this same format. This allows everyone to perform some of their favorite songs from this era. If this sounds like a project you are interested in let me know.
