Armada

ABOUT

"ARMADA are a powerful four piece cranking out smart, soulful indie rock from the heart of Los Angeles. Echoes of Spoon, Wilco, Radiohead, Black Keys, and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club help define one of LA's most exciting indie rock outfits."

Armada is losing our beloved lead guitarist to a cross-country move! We're willing to hire a gun to bridge the gap between the time it takes to find a permanent member and the need to play shows now as part of our upcoming record release cycle. In the end, though, we're looking for a committed fourth.

You:
- Play either guitar or keys with good enough musical intuition to hop onto a second instrument as needed
- Don't mind banging a floor tom or shaking a tambourine from time to time
- Can sing backups

Us:
- New record (releasing in July): :///jrgruber/sets/armada-paper-ghosts-final/s-lnTEY
- Influences: Spoon, Queens of the Stone Age, Black Keys, Wilco, Arcade Fire, the Strokes, NIN, Foo Fighters, Zeppelin, Delta Spirit, White Rabbits, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
- Everything else: /ArmadaForPresident
