We are looking for a second lead guitarist who can also double on lap steel.
Country Rock has a specific trademark of often featuring twin lead guitars. We have one who can double on sax, now we need another who can also double on lap steel guitar which is also featured on much of the music we want to play.
We intend to cover the music of The Eagles, Doobie Brothers, Jackson Brown, Tom Petty, America, Eric Clapton, Marshall Tucker band, Bread, Poco, etc. We have a core of myself, Lance, on bass, Mike on drums, Terry & Pete both on vocals and guitar, Ian on keyboards and Simon on lead guitar & sax.
I'm Lance, based in central Blackpool, with the others also Blackpool and Fylde-based, and we have been getting into the feel of working with each other at my place where I have a rehearsal room but last week we started to make use of a proper rehearsal studio, The Unit in Bispham. Most of us have been around making music for some years. Vocals would be an additional bonus.
The country rock concept is lots of guitars and harmonies but often feature steel guitar and keys, often piano and/or Hammond organ and sometimes strings and very often twin lead guitars. If you are interested and available I can forward a list of the first few numbers we are working on which are fairly straight forward.
If you are interested and available we get together most often on Wednesdays. I can be contacted on here or via phone. text or WhatsApp on 07802 730133. Alternatively email me at lance@fogg.ndo.co.uk. We use a WhatsApp group for inter-band communication.
We need to know quite soon as it would be great if you can join us next Wednesday.
Cheers
Lance
