Kent based Folk / Americana band Mashville are now actively looking to add a female backing vocalist / instrumentalist to their ranks for 2018 shows.
Mashville have been gigging across the UK for the last few years and have recorded two albums of original material with a third to be released in Spring 2018.
The last couple of years have seen the band performing at the Shrewsbury Folk Festival on the same bill as Seth Lakeman and Loudon Wainwright and headlining slots at Donnington Park Truck-fest and Country Festival in Belgium respectively.
The band performs both a stripped back acoustic set and as a full electric band depending on the format of the shows. This addition to the band would be to play in both formats.
A natural singing voice with a feel for close harmonies is what we are after and an added instrument such as fiddle / percussion / organ / guitar would be an added bonus.
The band is based throughout Kent and normal rehearsal locations are out of Maidstone and Ashford areas.
The plan in 2018 is to spend the first part of the year rehearsing the set and then bookings will follow from the 2nd quarter.
We are not looking to perform or rehearse every week and the usual activity of the band has been clusters of gigs in festival season.
If you would like to get in touch with us then please drop us a line on grahamloft068@gmail.com.and visit our website at www.mashvilleband.com to hear the music and we can arrange an initial get together.
As ever, any material, accompanying clips or audios would be welcome.
