SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist, Drums, Keyboard, DJ.ABOUT
Here's the story.
I am a 52 year old guitar player originally from Long Island. I've been in (and out of) bands for years. There was a time I did a singer/songwriter thing as well.
When I moved to SI, about 5 years ago, I basically put down the guitar. But now I'm playing again. Same passion, new focus.
I'm no longer interested in transcribing intricate guitar harmonies or writing originals. I'm looking to start a kicking bar band. Energetic songs. Tight medleys. High enthusiasm. Not a band going through the motions. Not background music, but a good time that can't be ignored.
I don't want the tired set list I've been seeing bands perform for years and years . I believe there's enough music loving listeners who would rather hear, a familiar, yet surprising setlist of rock, hip hop, soul, pop, country, alternative, etc. Basically.... radio songs. Some arranged with a twist or mashed together in a medley, or played like it's super bowl halftime.
To start, I'm looking for the front person. The main focal point. The confident vocalist. Someone to start the band building process with me. First, I'm guessing a get together with an acoustic. Work out a few songs, throw around some ideas and start building a repertoire together. Low pressure.
This band will be a mix between talent and charisma - developed for the people in a club who need help to let go.
