Lead Vocals wanted to front new 70's function band
London Essex Herts
Tangerine Scene are a new semi pro function band playing chart hits exactly like the original records from the psychedelic era - 1965 to 1975 - T. Rex, David Bowie, The Small Faces, The Kinks, Santana, The Spencer Davis Group, Mott the Hoople, Badfinger, the Beatles, etc etc.
Our Product is a back line of excellent older ex-professional musicians from the 70s, fronted by a younger female lead singer. We aim to be playing around 2 well paid gigs a month.
I put the band together in the summer and we now have a fully rehearsed set and marketing materials ready to go. We recently lost our lead singer for reasons beyond her control, just as we were about to start warm up gigs in pubs before signing to an agency for function work. Our back line comprises - Two Lead Guitars, Bass, Drums, Organ/Piano .... three of us sing backing vocals.
Please see video which includes set list . . . You Tube “Tangerine Scene” or use this link: https://youtu.be/Q33ix40vRV8
We have been together just a few months and have quickly found a great groove with an authentic 60s / 70s sound. We also get on really well together; we are easy going but committed, passionate about the music and we aim to have some fun while we make a little money.
In order to attract the best Agents, the idea is to have a singer up front who can not only belt it out but will also add just a tad more youth and glamour to our Sounds of the 70s product, . . . BUT . . . that doesn't mean you necessarily need to be in your twenties, .... just not bald and grey! (We we're playing this material when it was on the charts originally!!j
You do not have to be local. Our band comprises people who live in Enfield, Chingford, Richmond, Essex and Hertfordshire. Rehearsals are every 2 to 3, weeks, becoming less frequent once we start gigging. We rehearse VERY close to Junction 26 on the M25 at Waltham Abbey near to Theydon Bois Tube.
People with names like, Elkie Brooks, Janis Joplin, Julie Driscoll, Tina Turner or Marianne Faithful given preference. (We will consider Male lead singers who are charismatic with no diva issues . . . we are a down to earth bunch!)
