ABOUT

We are a progressive rock band that is really, really good. The three other members in our band are ALL classically trained and read music, however reading music is not what we do. We gig out from time to time, but recently we have been doing a lot of recording. This band is going somewhere, and we need a bass guitarist to get us there. Our bassist is moving out of state. Commitment level is not much other than to have 1-3 rehearsals a month. However, we each come prepared with all music memorized and fully practiced so every time we practice it is like we are playing a gig. Our music is all originals and totally musical with dynamics and beautiful melodies. If you can sing, that is a bonus but not required.
