SEEKING
Vocalist, Lead Guitar.ABOUT
GRAY Music Factory is looking for people to fill two spots in the band:
1. A guitarist who can play rhythm and lead guitar to share lead guitar responsibilities. We play a variety of rock and pop-sounding songs. Check out the songs in the audio player.
2. A strong singer to share lead vocal responsibilities and do harmonies. If you play an instrument --- that's a plus, but it's not a requirement. Our songs are heavy on harmonies. Sometimes the harmonies are like counterpoint lead vocals. We need multiple lead singers to share the lead vocal responsibilities and to ensure we have great harmonies. The ability to sing comfortably in higher registers is a big plus.
We have the core group and a lot of original progressive pop material.
You don't need to give up your day job to be part of GRAY. Our goal is to connect with people who love to listen to our music over and over. We will do this through our studio and live cuts on streaming sites, our music videos, and live streams -- something akin to Band Geek but focused more on original music. I write a lot of music with Matt Kramer, all the songs in the audio tracks at the top of this profile were written by Matt and me. We would love to collaborate with others to write and perform new songs.
We've released a few GRAY songs already. I added 2 videos - one a studio cut, the other a live session video. I also put 10 of our original songs in the audio player. I have also provided a few of my music videos, some featuring players in GRAY. Check them out. If you like them, let's connect. Check me out further at stevemansour <dot> com.
