Drummer Wanted for Covers Band – Beds, Herts & Bucks
We are looking for a drummer, ideally between 30-45 to join our covers band.
We have gigs lined up for the rest of the year and we also play at weddings by getting bookings from either Facebook advertising or wedding fairs.
We have a set of c.80 songs and are always looking to add more and improve our show so that we are not just a ‘covers' band.
Our website is www.hairbrushentertainment.co.uk which is a small business that provides various entertainment options with the primary focus being on our covers band.
Type of music we do: U2, Coldplay, Stereophonics, Snow Patrol, The Kinks, Kaiser Chiefs, The Proclaimers, James, Bon Jovi, Travis, Oasis, Reef, Bruno Mars, Black Eyed Peas, Guns n’ Roses to give you an idea….Recordings can be found on our website.
We are a 4 piece band – 2 x Vocals/Guitars, 1 x Bass and BV’s for any drummer would be a bonus but not essential.
Some of our gigs range between 2-4 hours and can go well into the early hours - likewise with weddings, and we split the money 5 ways so that the business can build up a pot of cash to fund any essential equipment requirements.
We have our own rehearsal space for which all members contribute Ł60 a month which enables us come and go as we please and leave all the gear there set up, ready to go - We usually rehearse once a week depending on everyone's schedules and the space is fully alarmed and can only be accessed by a via a recognised phone. Whilst this sounds like a ‘pay to be in our band’ scenario, it really is a huge benefit for all involved having done this for 4 years +.
Our current drummer is moving to a distant location and will not be able to travel to rehearse and gig with us any longer.
Please let me know if you are interested.
