Our amazing bass player is leaving the country (he assures us it's nothing we said) and we need to replace him ready to get up and running again as soon as Boris lets us out.
We are mature musicians, covering an age range from "pretty young really" to "getting on a bit". The band comprises a female vocalist, lead guitarist/male vocalist, bass player and drummer. We play rock and pop covers aimed at the functions market, where we were just establishing a good reputation when lockdown hit. Our set list is a mixture of popular and lesser-played numbers, and we refresh it regularly.
We are a friendly bunch, motivated purely by the enjoyment of playing and performing together. Our style is informal and we don't take ourselves too seriously. However, we are serious about our music and the quality of our performance. We are not professional musicians but we like to think we get close, and that's our aspiration. We rehearse weekly in studios in and around Maidstone.
The person we are looking for will be an experienced and competent instrumentalist who will share our ambition for musical excellence and our absolute commitment to practicing regularly. Personality-wise, someone who prefers to operate by democracy and consensus rather than in a rigid hierarchy with competing egos.
We are looking for expressions of interest now so we can get going as soon as possible post-lockdown.
If this sounds like your kind of thing, message us with some information about your experience and interests using the link below and we'll send further details with a set list.
