ABOUT

We are a popular Taylor Swift tribute band playing regionally, averaging 2 big shows a month, looking for a sub/fill-in drummer for some upcoming shows where our current drummer has family conflicts. We perform in theater-size venues (or larger), often selling out the room. Our band is made up of highly skilled/experienced players who can put on a show, and are willing to help get a sub/fill-in player up to speed quickly.

**********Requirements**********

*Must play to a click, use in-ear monitors (wired is fine), having a drum-pad is a major plus
*MUST LIKE Taylor Swift. We are actual Swifties, not posers, no Taylor disrespect is tolerated.
*Ability to play everything from Indie acoustic to huge EDM/Pop. Taylor is extremely versatile.
*Great attitude - our shows are often described as "joyful." We really like each other and love our guests.
*Ability to travel. You may be needed for a fly date, but drive-gigs are most likely.
*No illegal/illicit drug use. Alcohol consumption must be kept in check. Our shows are always All Ages.
*No MAGAS or Anti-Vaxxers.
*Practice in the Western Suburbs (near Downers Grove).
