Mark Horton + Band in Wichita, KS

SEEKING

ABOUT

Interested in pursuing folkrock/american/roots sounds with brief forays into jazziness and jamminess (not pajama-ness). Interested in doing electric and acoustic gigs. Would love to find an electric/upright bassist & and a drummer/percussionist who is cool with a stripped down kit.

Members Of Band

i write, arrange, sing lead & harmony, play guitar (primarily), mando, a bit'o'keys, harmonica. looking to put together a small combo (3 or 4 piece) with a bassist, multi-intsru.ist (?) and drummer/perc.ist....playing with tons of energy without tons of LOUD. lead/harmony singing would be a real plus. 2 or 3 gigs per month, a rehearsal a week - roughly.
musicians who listen; dependable; honest - let's not waste each other's time and energy.

EQUIPMENT

All my own rigs for electric and acoustic performance; substantial pa; some recording gear.
