Established Shropshire band Mother Thunder are in need of a new lead guitarist!
Winners of Best Rock Band 2025 at The Shropshire Music Awards, we're an originals focused 70s/80s hard rock Band, based in the Shrewsbury area.
EP recently released July 2025 out on all major platforms, live album released this month, with live performance and music videos on YouTube.
Band currently consists of drums, bass, guitar and vocals. Current guitarist looking to become more rhythm-guitar focused.
Primary focus for 2nd guitarist is on lead playing, would need to be comfortable creating improvised and structured solos, developing chordal melodies/counter melodies and twin lead guitar work. Multi instrumentation a bonus but not essential. Overall aim is to expand on the band's powerful sound.
Must be a focused individual wanting to push the project forward. Growing from 1-2 gigs a month on average.
Must be happy to promote with social media, actively looking for new shows and collaboration, and be prepared for any media outreach.
Committed to practice once a week in Shrewsbury.
Happy to contribute artistically to song writing and overall band image.
Prepared to participate in recording and the small pooling of resources for future releases and gigs further afield if neccessary (band kitty).
Fan of the era of music and influences such as Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake, Van Halen, Slash, Iron Maiden and The Cult, but a wider range of styles to demonstrate versatility is great and warmly welcomed.
Backing vocals is a bonus but not essential!
