Description
Creating a dance-able “Classic Alternative” rock/pop cover band. 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s. It’s for fun, play 1-3 times a month. We have vox/bass, vox/keys. We'll search for a drummer last (I have a friend who will us help ramp up).
Muse, Depeche, Keane, Alice In Chains, Jesus & Mary Chain, MGMT, Malone, Bowie, Pumpkins, NIN, Clash, Big Data, Blur, Wallflowers, Royal Blood, Cage The Elephant, Waterboys, Replacements, Death Cab For Cutie, Radiohead, Empire Of The Sun, …
See video-clips below. Since we didn’t have guitarists at the time, we selected 2 songs we could play as a 2-piece. Everything is LIVE except for MIDI drum tracks I programmed, including us faking guitar parts on keys & bass, and triggering lights via footswitch.

Ideal guitarist would be a rocker who likes pop, enjoys diverse parts, tones, effects. Should be real good technically. There is room for solos / improv. This is not a good fit for a classic-rock/R&B guitarist (since songs can have multiple parts, tones, effects, volumes). Below 3 mp3s have snippets of type of guitar playing we’re looking for:
