Description
Creating a danceable “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 and some guitar & vox prospects.
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, …
Ideal fit would be a solid & dynamic "classic rock” type drummer who could add that attitude & feel to techno/pop. This is not a good fit for grunge-thrashers or backbeat-only drummers. Think Alex Van Halen, Aerosmith's Joey Kramer, etc.
Examples of that type of drumming on our song list:
- Depeche Mode's Christian Eigner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tZxMi7EG3A
- Royal Blood's Ben Thatcher: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X8fQD3CL5I
See video-clips of our skill-level 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.
