Mccreature + Band in Dallas, TX

SEEKING

ABOUT

I am a singer/songwriter and a member of the Austin Tx Band Mandible. I have recently relocated to Dallas and am looking to put together a new project. I don't consider myself a super badass player but I have never played with anyone who wasn't. (lucky, I guess) I am currently looking for 3 string players (violin, viola,cello preferably) I'm Looking for folks who can read notation and get along without it if necessary. Mandible fills my need for the ultra loud rock, this project I guess would be more described as baroque pop/rock. Been doing this a while so not looking for folks at the "just learning" level. Hoping to be playing gigs within a couple of months in Dallas and Austin. Oh yeah...players need to be able to sing harmonies when needed...yep.
I care about skills and good ears only...I don't care if you're 18 or 80 years old.
