I am a singer/songwriter who's been singing and writing for 20 years. I am looking for musicians to gig with doing originals and covers. The sound is neo-soul, r&b and jazz influenced pop. I am in need of keys, drums, bass/upright, background singers and possibly trumpet and rhythm guitar as well. Also maybe trombone in future. The kind of act I want would be a high-energy backing band a la Bruno Mars. I want to be playing live to promote originals but will so some covers as well. Not interested in being a tribute band.
