Looking for keyboardist (multi-instrumentalist, beats programmer and backing vocals are each pluses) to collaborate on an original recording project. I write music and lyrics, play guitar and some keys, and sing. I moved to Grand Island a year ago and had to leave behind my long-time bandmates (guitar and bass). We’re still writing and recording demos remotely and plan to get into the studio together once a year.
You can hear our first two albums on Spotify (link below) or iTunes. We will keep some elements of our style from those records, but we are planning to mellow things out quite a bit and head into a Zero 7, Portishead, Thievery Corporation direction.
I’m 49 and able to get together once a week (sometimes twice, depending on life). Age doesn’t really matter to me much as long as you’re mellow and like to laugh and enjoy the process. I have a small home studio and can travel if necessary. If you’re interested, send some recordings and a description of your favorite music and influences, and just where you’re at in life.
