ABOUT

Psych/Stoner/Doom Rock. The project has themed content. The narrative is occult in nature so highly religious people may want to move on.

We have a solid female lead vocalist (who has beauty and charisma) and an excellent drummer.

I'm looking for a better bassist as ours is functional but not great. He is a buddy that's been helping me out but he doesn't plan to stay in the band for long.

We could use a keyboardist bust that's to take it to the next level. I have parts developed for keys.

I write the songs and play all instruments but I focus on rhythm/lead guitar. Also looking for another guitarist to share the load with me.

We have a rehearsal space (near the 5 & 8 freeway junction) and we should be ready to gig very shortly. We have solid connections in the area and will be able to book shows easily. Hoping to expand to LA this fall and do a west coast tour early next year.

I'm military, lead singer has her own business, and the drummer works AV Gigs. I include this because we are professionals and this is serious hobby that we would like to turn into something more.

There is more than one project in the group and I'd be happy to record your stuff as well if you join.

Members Of Band

See description. We aren't public yet so I don't want to share personal details or names.

EQUIPMENT

Guitars (Mine is an American Strat Elite), Basses, Amps (Tube), MBP with Logic Pro, PA, drum sets, MIDI Controllers.

Pretty much a full setup. Technically all you need to bring is skill. But obviously if you have good gear it's a plus.

An in ear monitors set will be necessary for the stage and I expect any performer to obtain their own, but I have a digital mixer so we can set our own monitor levels.

We have a good pedal spread as well.
