Bass player required for fast rising rock'n'roll band from Leeds who are currently signed with full backing for releases, PR and publishing. We also have our own studio where we rehearse (gear left setup) and record, all for free. Currently a two piece that have so far recieved critical acclaim from national and international press, radio and streaming platforms.
The band currently have around 15k listeners a month on Spotify and the fan base is growing every week. The band recently featured in Classic Rock magazine as a 'Track of the Week' alongside Greta Van Fleet and Classic Rock said of the band
"Think early Black Keys with one foot in a pool of classic stalwarts like Zeppelin". Currently Guitar/lead vox and drums, the band are looking for an experienced bass player to join the 2 piece to turn it into a power trio (think Jimi Hendrix & Cream but with a modern twist).
Influences include Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, The Black Keys, The White Stripes, Jack White, Howlin Wolf, Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones and The Beatles.
The sound is classic heavier rock'n'roll with a modern twist.
Looking for a bass player with similar taste in music who can really groove (think John Paul Jones & Billy Cox) but also looks the part as well with pro gear and preferably your own transport. It would be advantageous if you can provide backing vocals. You need to be reliable, quick to learn, a team player and up for a laugh but be prepared to work hard.
The band is really gathering momentum and some very exciting things are in the pipeline and in 2019 we intend to release our second album, tour, support and play festivals (UK & EU). Currently we rehearse once a week, sometimes two, sometimes three, depending on what is coming up.
We have a few gigs booked in for 2018 including some decent support slots with touring artists.
If you are interested, please email a bit about yourself, your gear and your experience and when you'd be available plus something with you playing on recently (video or track) to info@cuttothechasemusic.com
If we think it's worth getting you down for an audition to jam, we'll be in touch and send you more info and a couple of tracks to learn.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully hear from you soon.
All the best
