SEEKING
Band to Join, Bass Guitar, Vocalist, Drums.ABOUT
I'VE BEEN LOOKING, AND I'M STILL LOOKING FOR A SINGING DRUMMER (backups) AND SINGING BASS PLAYER (backups at least, but lead vocal ability is cool!!) As of 12/5/2018 !!!
Seriously, can we do this?
First off, yep, that profile pic is me, just with short blond hair, instead of the old school long dark.
Lead Guitar Player/Singer, have played with DangerBoy,Inside Straight, Rhaven,etc...Looking for a few good musicians who can sing backup at least, and actually play their instruments at the same time.
I am putting together a cover band with strong harmonies and killer (okay, at least decent) musicianship. That's right I said it COVER BAND!!!! Don't mind doing originals, but let's get something up and running first.
I have a list of about 50 or 60 songs I like playing, and am willing to play just about anything you like, within my abilities. For instance, don't ask me to play say, some Yngwie Malmsteen, I'm just not that kind of player...
I am also NOT into spending months and months in the basement rehearsing. I am about getting it together, and getting out there and playing. I am connected, and know how to get work. Besides, you just don't really get tight as a band until you've been playing out for awhile, anyway.
So let's play my material, and we'll play yours too. PLEASE don't waste my time. I play this stuff right, and expect the same from my musicians.
If you are looking to work, and actually MAKE MONEY, contact me.
And don't let the tone of this ad scare you. I'm totally focused, but still pretty mellow. I just want my feelings and expectations to be known up front, so there are no questions later. I'm looking for some good, like minded musicians to work with.

MUSIC

Randy & Sal Mancini - Like A Stone
Randy & Sal Mancini - Like A Stone Genre: Alternative
Did this awhile back, I played everything and sang the harmony. Sal Mancini, one of the BEST musicians I've ever met, did the lead vocal for me. Thanks, Sal!!!

Man in the Box
Man in the Box Genre: Alternative
This one is a little older, and you can hear it's a little more raw. Tommy on bass and vocals, and Kirk on drums again. And I'm playing two guitar tracks on this one. I put this one up, because it has an actual solo on it.

Randy-UglyDuckling-MikeNash'sFirst
Randy-UglyDuckling-MikeNash'sFirst Genre: Rock
This one's an original. I wrote the music, aside from the basic structure, which was my late friend, David White. I came up with the opening tag (a modification of Dave's original) and the arrangement. I played everything, and sang the harmonies.

Higher
Higher Genre: Alternative
This is another, recorded right here in my home studio, if you could call it that. More of a band effort on this with Tommy on bass and vocals, and Kirk on drums. I'm playing guitar and singing backup, and there IS only one guitar track on this one, and on "Interstate Love Song, for that matter. So I got a pretty good guitar sound on this one. I hope I can do that again !!! Enjoy, or not... Randy
