Looking for:
???? Drummer
????/???? Keyboard/Organ Player OR Rhythm Guitarist
Bonus: If you can sing (lead or backing), that’s a massive plus!
The Vibe & Setlist
We are putting together a project dedicated to the definitive eras of Eric Clapton, spanning his heaviest blues days to his legendary solo career. We will be performing both full-volume electric sets and stripped-back acoustic sets.
Our setlist covers:
The Early Years: John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, Cream, Blind Faith
The 70s/80s: Derek and the Dominos, 461 Ocean Boulevard, and beyond
The Solo Career: Unplugged, his massive radio hits, and deep-cut blues
Clapton-Adjacent Giants: We'll be mixing in select tracks from his closest peers and collaborators, including Jimi Hendrix and George Harrison.
About You
Drummer: Needs a solid pocket. Think Ginger Baker’s power meets Jim Gordon’s groove and Jamie Oldaker’s laid-back feel.
Keys or Rhythm Guitar: We need someone to flesh out the harmonic backbone. If you're on keys, think classic Hammond organ/piano textures (Bobby Whitlock style). If you're on rhythm guitar, we want someone who can lock in with the bass and drums, holding down the rhythm while the lead guitar takes flight.
Vocals: Not mandatory, but highly desired! Being able to harmonize or trade lead vocals will really elevate the band.
Attitude: Reliable, relaxed, and genuinely passionate about 60s/70s blues-rock and classic tone.
Next Steps
Once we Have found the two missing pieces we will be looking to get into the rehearsal room to see how the chemistry feels. If you're ready to dive into some of the greatest guitar-driven music ever written, get in touch!
