We are a 7 piece wedding and function band with brass section and we are looking for a talented male vocalist to share duties with our female singer. We play a selection of floor fillers from the 50’s - today so you will need to be comfortable with a variety of styles.
We play mostly private parties & weddings with a few corporate and charity events thrown in for good measure, however to entice potential clients will also perform some public gigs (pubs for example) through the year.
The fee we charge fluctuates depending on the event, but we can give you an idea of the average “per gig” cash if you think you fit the below criteria. Bear in mind this isn’t our primary jobs and do this as much for the love of playing live as for the bonus pocket money!
We are looking for someone who is:
- Able to sing a variety of styles
- Comfortable with backing vocals and learning harmonies quickly
- Professional and engaging on stage.
- Reliable with reliable transport
- Ready to have a band take priority over other musical interests
- Prepared to help set up and pack down at gigs
- Looking to have fun with the band on and off the stage.
- Live in Hampshire area
In return we offer a relaxed and fun bunch of people who LOVE playing live, but who also understand how to deliver an excellent standard of playing along with a professional approach. We have our own high end full range PA system and automated lighting rig, and we gig on a regular basis (average of 20-25 per year).
If you think this might be for you, please get in touch with your experience, any live video footage and any other information you think would be relevant. We will be happy to provide links to the band and our live footage if you are seriously interested and can offer the commitment required.
We don’t like the word “audition”, so we shall get in touch with you to invite you to hang out with us for a bit, and we will give you a selection of songs to sing in a relaxed and hopefully fun environment!
Please reply to this add or send is a private message.
We look forward to hearing from you!
