Funkster Vox
(Hertfordshire)
Tuesday 10 Dec 2019, 2:14pm
Male and females singers looking to put a covers band together, or join one that plays pop, soul and funk.
Need bass, drums, keys, guitars, with BVs if poss but not essential.
Played blues, rock over the years ( still like that ) but want to do more poppy soulful stuff.
I was an 80s child so I have a connection to that period, but also like 70s and the odd 90s- but actually anything poppy or souly.
I think there is a market for people bored with hearing Kings of Leon and the Killers, who might raise a smile when they hear something a bit different.
Sorry for the long message, just thought I'd give an idea of what we're looking for.
Here's a brain dump of songs, let us know your thoughts,
