The Royal Valentines is looking for a new Guitarist and Bassist to start ASAP to rehearse ready for a 6 month Cruise Contract we have from October 10th this year to March next year.
Thomson Cruise, $1900 per musician, each Month.
Age range: 21-35
Area: South-East Wales (however we are looking to branch further afield so will consider guitarists and bassists willing to travel)
Provide Backing Vocals (but not essential.)
About the group: We are a professional function band specializing in popular covers. We cover a variety of music from old Rock & Roll and Rock classics to famous groovy Soul/Funk tracks and new Pop tracks.
We have regular gigs every weekend at venues across South Wales, and are hoping to branch out across the UK for corporate events, weddings and festivals.
*If you can not commit to our regular Gigs but just want to do the Cruise Contract that is fine. As long as you can commit to regular rehearsals to learn our Cruise Set List of 350 songs. Would be advantage if you can do our regular Gigs too.*
Our regular paid Clubs/ Pubs and Social Clubs work is £60-£70 each member. For private hire function work such as Cooperate or Weddings is £100-£150 each member.
You must be competent to play in a variety of styles. You must be able to improvise and perform on stage, and enjoy playing music with the band and working together as a team.
Here’s a bit more detail about us –
After more than six years playing with a variety of groups, manager and drummer Richard Trussell started the band, originally called ‘Ruby and the Valentines’, in 2016.
Based in Torfaen, South Wales, we started out playing at local venues but were soon contacted by companies for corporate events, and couples for weddings and anniversaries. A real highlight was featuring on Made in Cardiff TV, where our performance was played on their prime-time show. The production company enjoyed our music so much that we were asked to perform on another program showing!
Now with a new name, The Royal Valentines, and a few new members, we are looking forward to playing at more events across the UK.
Kind regards
Richard
Band Manager
