SEEKING
Bass Guitar, Saxophone, Keyboard, Piano.ABOUT
As of 2/1/19, the combo group is nearly complete but still need the right bassist. Thanks to everyone for your interest!
The new group is also looking for a great horn player who loves classic r&b/soul music. Someone familiar with the stylings of King Curtis, Memphis Horns, Rich Lataille, Greg Piccolo; those guys. We're not looking for hired guns, but talented players who want to be part of a group and help develop tight arrangements in a team environment. Our plans are to perform regularly around Denver and the surrounding areas.
The tracks here are all from our (vocalist and guitarist) former band, Suitcase Kings/Handsome Wrecks, and include studio demo and live recordings. Both of us are featured on all the tracks.
You can get in touch with us here or at capstanroller at the g mail dot com site.
