Seeking drummer for experimental rock band

Portland OR

Description

Seeking a drummer who plays as a musician, someone who wishes to serve the song. Diverse tastes/techniques for eclectic tunes/arrangements; open to or experienced with hybrid acoustic/electronic drumming 2 practices per week, 6 hours total ideal. Local (ish) gigs a couple times per month, touring eventually. Percussive interests outside the drum kit are cool. Interest in texture and touch is more important than power. Brushes, mallets, clanking creatively. Experimentation is the name of the game. Thus far we have 8-9 originals, 2 covers, and are always writing. We're aiming for prolific, inspired, living for music. Need someone who can be vulnerable and direct and values open communication. Someone who sees music and a creative atypical lifestyle as a priority. We have a basement rehearsal and recording studio, and you can keep your kit here. We aspire to record live. :) That energy. Here are a couple bands with each of our favorite drummers... Kerry (vocals and guitar) ~ Radiohead and Deftones Kyle (baritone guitar) ~ Can and Dirty Three Colin (bass and synth) ~ Wilco and Medeski, Martin & Wood
