Functions band looking for an enthusiastic lead vocalist. We're looking for someone with good frontperson tendencies, natural stage presence and ideally previous experience singing in a band.
Aiming to get a couple of simple cover sets together and start looking for paid gigs for events such as weddings, private parties and maybe the occasional themed sets at regular music venues (such as full sets of Foo Fighters songs for example). Once we've got two sets tight and gig-worthy, we'd like to be able to develop a wider variety of sets such as post-hardcore, emo, cheese, etc., maybe get a website up and also then start an originals band on the side (likely to be more edgy than the functions side of things).
