Established party covers band looking for a reliable drummer to complete the lineup.
We’ve got a guitarist, female vocalist, and bassist, plus a strong setlist already in place — we’re now looking for the right drummer to get gig-ready and out playing.
**What We’re About:**
High-energy rock and pop party covers with our own spin — classic crowd-pleasers done properly so we stand out. Think tight, dynamic, and fun rather than note-for-note copies.
We’re aiming for around **1–2 gigs a month** (pubs, functions, private events) — enough to build momentum without burnout.
**Setlist Includes (a range of styles):**
* Locked Out of Heaven – Bruno Mars
* Blow – Ed Sheeran / Bruno Mars / Chris Stapleton
* Seven Nation Army / Sweet Dreams (Mashup) – The White Stripes / Eurythmics
* Don’t You Want Me – The Human League
* Black Velvet – Alannah Myles
* All The Small Things – Blink-182
* Sweet Child O’ Mine – Guns N' Roses
* You Oughta Know – Alanis Morissette
* I Believe in a Thing Called Love – The Darkness
* Since U Been Gone – Kelly Clarkson
* Hard to Handle – The Black Crowes
* Call Me – Blondie
(Plus plenty more in a similar vein — full setlist ready to go)
**The Plan:**
We’re ready to move quickly — the goal is to get a drummer in, tighten up as a full band, and start booking paid gigs through venues and agents.
**What We’re Looking For:**
* Solid, experienced drummer who can learn material and turn up prepared
* Reliable and communicative
* Own kit and transport
* Available for rehearsals in Birmingham city centre (we rehearse at Robannas)
* Wants to get out gigging, not just jam
**Important:**
We’re looking to get someone in for a rehearsal soon, so ideally someone who can pick up a few songs and jump straight in.
**What We Offer:**
* Band with clear direction and a gig-ready setlist
* Regular rehearsals
* Members in our 40s (open to all ages — attitude matters more)
* Laid-back vibe but a professional approach
