We’re after a reserve drummer to join our exciting, fresh and fast-growing band!
We have just recorded our 2nd album and are looking to increase the amount of gigs, international tours and festivals next year so will need a reserve drummer to fill in for the gigs our current drummer can’t play. Our current drummer helped to form the band and manages it however he has moved abroad for a few years so is unable to do many UK gigs or festivals.
A little bit about us:
‘The Maitree Express are a new, 7-piece band from Bath that is fast developing a following for love of their original, soulful take on reggae, dub, ska, hip hop, swing, funk, drum & bass and funky beats. The band’s sound appeals to audiences of all ages and backgrounds and never fails to get people dancing!’
The role in the band:
We're after someone who is committed and regularly available for practises once a week and for gigs and travel abroad. Someone who has a good sense of rhythm, can groove and can play with plenty of emotion. A lot of our songs make use of the classic offbeat reggae-style stabs, but we also play dub, ska, hip hop and drum & bass. We love to be creative with new sounds and rhythms so flexibility and versatility are very important to us!
Below we’ve added links to our social media pages. Please take some time to have a look and listen and consider if you'd fit the vibe and style before applying.
