SEEKING
Piano, Other, Mandolin, Lead Guitar, Drums, Dobro, Bass Guitar, Banjo, Acoustic Guitar.ABOUT
I'm looking for some younger (most likely 30 and below) players (multi instrumentalists are preferable) to play STEEL GUITAR / DOBRO, BANJO, LEAD COUNTRY STYLE GUITAR, BASS, DRUMS, FIDDLE, MANDOLIN, HONKY TONK PIANO / KEYS, HARMONICA, etc.
I need people who are ready to tour the US and the rest of the world full time because they love doing so. Songs are written. That's never a problem. I just need the right players to take the show on the road full time. Huge money probably ain't an option. I wish it were, but I'm not the Stones. I need people who love to play and are easy to get along with.
The music is some sort of cross between old school country / alt country rock, folk, americana, and psychedelic stoner rock. Think a slightly moodier take on Gram Parsons' "Cosmic American Music." It's what it might have sounded like if Pink Floyd kept all their spacey effects pedals but grew up in Dixie - listening to Hank Williams...
