Description
I'm putting together a new Rock Band and I need experienced, skilled, creative players who like to perform and put on a great show. The three goals of this band are:
1.) Play often - I have a day job too, so we're not talking 5 nights a week, but as often as our collective schedules allow.
2.) Put on a great show - Nobody wants to pay money to see a band that stands around like a bunch of cardboard cutouts acting "too cool for school". We need, at the very least, enthusiasm and energy. What specific forms this will take will be decided collectively once the band is assembled.
3.) Have Fun! - While musicianship is absolutely important for this project, this is not about being struggling artists. This band is about going out and having a great time - both for the band members and the audience. The goal for our originals (and covers) is music that is light-hearted, accessible, marketable and just lots and lots of fun!
This band is to meant to play mostly originals, although we'll have a repertoire of covers when that's what a particular venue wants. Some of the covers I have in mind are:
Sharp Dressed Man - ZZ Top
Peace of Mind - Boston
You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC
Unchained - Van Halen
Any Way You Want It - Journey
You get the idea. Not exactly metal, not grunge, just straight up rock.
As for the instrumentation, I'll be going back and forth between guitar and keyboard/synthesizer. So, I'm looking for:
* A Lead vocalist
* A Guitarist
* A Bassist
* A Drummer
If this sounds like what you're looking for, send me a link to where I can see/hear you do what you do. Anything is OK it doesn't have to be a professional recording, but do send something.
