SEEKING
Lead Guitar, Keyboard.ABOUT
I am the first of 2 lead singers in the soul cover band known as b?n. We formed just over 18 months ago in NVA, with 4 of the 5 founding members still a part of the group. We cover a wide range of soul/r&b/pop/funk music (see “Influences”), & have been gigging regularly since November of 2021. We are currently looking for a lead guitarist (or possibly a second keyboard player) with solid skills/chops, dependability, an eagerness/willingness to do the “homework” so we can have fun during rehearsals & gigs, & a professional mindset. We rehearse once a week, if we can, in Fredericksburg. Our bass player has everything we need in a basement setup with ample space. I am not technically inclined myself, so if you have any questions regarding gear, I can pass those along to Paul (our bass player). You can find some limited clips of our performances on be, as well as our & IG pages (b?n & bonsoulband, respectively), if you are interested in such things.
