B. Whelan + Band in Shoreview, MN

SEEKING

ABOUT

I am the former frontman, vocalist and lyricist for the Minneapolis-based hard-rock group, Black Days Down. Throughout the 3 1/2 - 4 years as a band, we played well over 100+ shows on many stages throughout the Midwest. Having said that, I have more than a fair amount of experience on-stage as a frontman and vocalist, and off-stage as a lyricist and musician.

I am looking to either: 1. join an established alt. rock/hard-rock Twin Cities band with ambition and drive to create and play original material and shows, or 2. put a brand new project together, and in which case I will be seeking a proficient guitarist and/or keyboardist to start. I'm also seeking musicians with a similar vision, who are easy-going as well as open to creative suggestions, and those that can commit to at least 1-2 practices a week (once we can figure out a practice space). If you would like to get an idea of how I sound and the quality of my past works, please feel free to give the above examples a whirl.

If you are interested, please feel free to contact me at any time with a link to some samples of your work, and we can go from there.
