ABOUT

CURRENT BAND LOOKING FOR LEAD GUITARIST AND (EVENTUALLY) HORN(S).

I'm in a brand new project looking for some more musicians. A talented lead guitarist, and eventually some horn player(s). Background vocals a plus.

PLEASE NOTE: we are CURRENTLY not about the money but rather the creative process. We practice in Dunedin one night a week and are looking to play out one, maybe two shows a month. We hope to play out by mid-late summer/early fall. Big goal will be to play at one of the many Florida festivals.

We are all kind, funny, humble, drama-free, ego-less, team players, who want to create and bring joy to the world with our music.

THE BAND: drummer who also plays bass. Bass player who also plays drums. Keyboard player and me who sings and writes lyrics. Our goal is to have the whole band sound like ONE beautiful instrument. Giving each person space to shine.

We are writing original songs and will add unique versions of covers in the near future.

For me, this has been a wonderfully challenging experience. The players are well versed in music theory (which I am not, but it's fun to watch). We're working with chord that are not very typical. We're all really excited to be creating together and want to find players with the same enthusiasm.

The sound has a groove with bluesy-jazzy-soulful undertones. (Please see ROUGH demos from practice on songs " Good", "Tantalize Me" & " Excuses")

We are a "420-friendly and drink a couple of beers" kind of band. We don't want folks that are hard partiers who put the party before the performance. We hope to find like-minded musicians to join in the creative process.

Thank you for reading.
