Forming original Madchester/Motown/90sAltRock band

Meets

Missoula MT

Description

We're looking for a lead guitarist for an ORIGINAL (maybe weird) band. It'd be nice if you are also a multi-instrumentalist who can play horns, strings, and/or keyboards. One who can harmonize with at least one of us is a MAJOR plus. Extra plus: someone who can play Armenian Duduk--no joke! While that sounds odd, it should give an idea of what we're trying to do: create a unique sounding band using unusual instruments and arrangements. But would still have "pop" listenability/accessibility. Think Damon Albarn's solo stuff but heavier. Influences: Stone Roses/Charlatans/Happy Mondays/Inspiral Carpets Echo and the Bunnymen The Tragically Hip Blur/Gorillaz Brian Eno (esp. on the James albums) The Church/Jack Frost Uncle Tupelo/Wilco Queen Most "classic rock" (We prefer Kinks and Who over Beatles and Stones. Yeah, we know, sacrilege!) Concrete Blonde XTC Hum Poster Children Cracker Kyuss Tool My Bloody Valentine Love Spit Love Velvet Underground The Ojays Hypnagogic/Hauntology 80s SoCal punk Outlaw country (Highwaymen, Hank Sr, et al) 80s "Synth Britannia" bands (DM, Cabaret Voltaire, Ultravox, Yaz, et al) and Spinal Tap, Digital Underground, Chap-Hop (for humor, lest anyone gets too precious!) Disparate styles, yes, but they usually combine to form really cool, unique sounds and songs.... Looking for a lead guitarist, M or F, in their late 20s-40s. Pro experience a plus, but mostly looking for fun, easy-going personalities. If you do drugs, please have them under control. Emails only, please.
