Hello, we're Milltown Revelry, an 80's rock cover band. Looking for a lead vocalist (male or female) who can also play rhythm guitar.
We've been gigging around Derbyshire for 6 years. Our lead vocalist, Aleks, is leaving the band towards the end of the year and can help get you up to speed during the transition period.
We're a supportive and friendly bunch consisting of Dan the drummer, Si the lead guitarist and Jamie bass/support vocalist (me).
Practice is 2 hours, once per week on a weekday from 8-10pm at SoundHub, Belper (£25 per month).
**Gigs**
We play paid gigs around Derbyshire every few weeks, mostly on Saturdays starting at 8:30pm (be there before 8pm for a sound check).
Pay is split evenly between band members (4, including you).
A gig involves playing 24 songs with a short break in between (1h 30 total playing time).
We set up our own equipment (PA etc.) so you only need to bring your own amp and mic and ideally have your own transport to get to the venue.
We want someone ambitious and motivated to gig with us long term (2+ years) and available to do practices and gigs without issue.
We're flexible in replacing songs to better suit your style so we can gel best as a band.
**Audition**
An audition involves playing 3 songs with us at SoundHub. We have a list of 24 songs which you can choose 3 songs from. We'll send you a link to our cover recordings for you to practise along to before the audition.
Please let me know if you're interested.
If you could also provide
- Your level of experience
- Ambitions as a musician
- Any recordings (video or audio) of your playing
That will also help me figure out if we're a good match!
