Desperately seeking a Sam or Susan Frontperson!
The Revenants formed in July 2018. We are first and foremost a covers band. We have played several live events now and have booked commitments for October this year and have so far 4 bookings for 2023. Like many, Covid knocked us back for a couple of years. But we are back and running once more. We play popular covers from the 60’s to the 00’s and have a growing repertoire of songs covering rock, soft rock and pop. Songs by Beatles, Stones, Queen, Cult, Stereophonics, Clapton Credence, REM, Skynyrd, T-Rex, Quo, The Who, etc. etc.
Due to ever increasing work commitments, our current singer Tim is departing from us at the end of October. This is very sad for us as he has added a great sound to our band. We wish him well for his future.
Our 5-piece band consisted of lead singer/rhythm & acoustic guitars, lead guitar/backing vocals, bass guitar/backing vocals, keyboards/backing vocals and drums. We need that 5th piece once more. Ages range from early 40’s to 70’s. We are not ageist and are a real friendly bunch.
Age or male/female is not an issue for us. We have had both male and female vocalists in the past. What we do want and need though is commitment.
We rehearse in Rayleigh, Essex at Mushroom studios, mid-week. You will need your own transport and musical equipment. We would be looking at playing live probably twice a month at most. So, if you are looking for regular weekends, then we are probably not for you. We occasionally attend local open mic sessions.
We have our own PA and lighting and PL Insurance through AMP Band.

If you like what you see and think you could fit with us, please send me a message and tell us a bit about yourself. If you can send a demo or two as well, that would be a big help. If you play rhythm/acoustic guitar or both, that would be a distinct advantage.
