SEEKING
Band to Join, Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
Duo (bassist/female vocalist) looking to start or join an existing cover/tribute band that can do harmonies and backing vocals. We're looking for like-minded musicians that learn their parts prior to practice, consistently practice on their own and enjoy playing live. Initially bar gigs are OK, but should not be the end goal. Looking for musicians with higher expectations (concerts in the park, casinos, established venues, high end restaurants, etc.). Having connections and/or a place to practice is a huge plus.
About us:
- Bassist that loves carrying the groove and feel of a song. Enjoys all types of music (especially songs that get your butt moving).
- Female Vocalist that loves singing/harmonizing, performing and watching the audience have a great time.
We always come prepared to practice/gigs. Our ultimate gig would be based in the San Gabriel / Pasadena (California) area with an emphasis on Cover/Tribute songs that are catchy or have a dance-able vibe. We're simply looking for commitment and fun (without drugs or egos). We tend to learn songs like the recording from all genres and eras (50's through today). If interested, contact us at loveland (at) pobox (dot) com.
