The Peabodys are an eight piece acoustic Americana (ish) band consisting of lead vocalist, violinist/harmonies, flautist/harmonies, guitarists x 2/harmonies, dobro, banjo and bass.
We play for the love of playing and singing together. We don't gig extensively but when we do it's usually at something fun and different.
We rehearse once a week in Morpeth on a Wednesday between 7-9. There are times when some of us get together during the day to work on arrangements and practice. Rehearsals are a lot of fun but we do take it very seriously to try and perfect a very comprehensive and varied set list.
We'd love to expand the band to include a Cellist (or any other strings) who can fit in and work with everyone else to enhance an already fantastic sound, and who would be committed to regular rehearsals.
If you're also able to sing (or just carry a tune) all the better...but it's not a prerequisite.
You can check us out on the tube, Facebook or Soundcloud if you'd like to see/hear what we sound like.
The main criteria is you fit in with a band that's more like family and love playing/singing with other people.
Any age or gender is most welcome to get in touch if you'd like to know more or if you'd like to sit in with us to get a feel for what we do and see if it's for you. We're not expecting virtuoso musicians as we are a very nurturing band so don't let that put you off.
