This is a new start up. We appreciate highly skilled musicians are in huge demand so we wanted to state that clearly so nobody is having their time wasted.
We are looking for Bass, Drums and Keys. Ideally want people with no major ego, not needing to do this to survive and happy with 1 or 2 gigs per month BUT can really play. We're talking serials good session standards and play with passion and love for the song.
We're looking to get a high quality 80's band for corporate / wedding events but with a strong emphasis on tunes that not just about filling the dance floor. We really want to tap into the legions of great 80's artists and their massive back catalogues and bring a rich palette of tunes that will have a lot of people remember and really enjoyed. Such as, but not exclusive to:
* Nik Kershaw - The Riddle
* Depeche Mode - Enjoy the silence, Personal Jesus
* Prince - Let's go Crazy
* Talking Heads - Once in a lifetime, Burning down the house, Girlfriend is better
* David Bowie - Let's Dance, Hero's
* Kate Bush - Running up that hill
* Fleetwood Mac - Gypsy
And many more such as artist like Tears for Fears, Annie Lennox, Crowded House and more.
We are 4 members, so far, which are:
Lead Guitarist - Male
Lead Singer and Rhythm Guitarist - Male
Lead singer and backing singers x 2 - female
All in our late 30's to mid 40's. All either been in records deals and touring or been in a myriad of acts throughout the years. So the experience and standard is high.
We have access to incredible PA and lighting equipment but I stress we are going this for quality fun and the enjoyment of music and to earn some additional funds, too. So this is really 1 or 2 gigs per month but at a pro-level.
Let us know if you are keen to know more.
Many thanks
p.s. Can you send some recording links or video links of your playing? Many thanks
