Keyboard.ABOUT
Keyboard player wanted!!!! We're the Vegas Valentinos, we've been around for 20 plus years, playing all sorts of genres in all sorts of venues. Feel free to search the name on the web. Right now we're doing mostly classic rock covers, with some newer country like Brad Paisley, Toby Keith, etc mixed in. (Our bandmix sound clip here is pretty dated, from years ago when we were doing much more top 40 New Country) .Whenever we play live, we like to mix in some of our original tunes as well. Been laying low the last 6 months, but are looking to re-establish the band as working unit again, updating our covers list. We would like to add a keyboard player who compliments what the arrangements call for. Not looking for an amazing soloist, looking more for someone who helps fill out the sound/song by playing tastefully, sometimes just sustaining b3 sounding chords over the chord changes. Think something like Tom Petty's keyboard on "Only the Losers", it compliments and fills out the overall sound of the band. No drugs, no drama, just want a good person with good ears and taste to boost the band and play out maybe 2x per month at most. Please do not bring 3 trucks worth of equipment, a nice simple setup works great for us. Would prefer that you did your homework on your own (learning tunes) so that band rehearsal is much more productive. If you sing a little harmony, that would be a nice bonus, but not necessary.

MUSIC

Country Blend 1
Country Blend 1 Year: 2011 Genre: Country
Just some tracks from the Studio mixing board at a practice..Spliced and faded on Wavelab..Nothing fancy just a sample of what we play. We learn a couple of current Top 40 driving Country songs a month. The main concentration is to get more originals done and into Publishing. Playing covers is secondary to the originals But, it keeps the beer on the table...Capice?
