Hi , I don't know if this would be of any interest to you?.... as you mentioned you were more interested in original material rather than covers...But just thought i'd message you just to see : )
Myself and Charlene from top Salisbury cover band Innervision have a new cover /function band starting up ...as IV has come to an end this month ...However If you look at the live videos on the various web pages on the Innervison site; www.innervisioninfo.co.uk it will give you some idea of what we are aiming for. (That's Charlie on vocals and myself on drums : )
We already have Charlie on vocals, Chris on Guitar , Doug on bass guitar myself on drums ( Roland TD50KV pro kit) sorted out and just started practicing but we are still looking for a keyboard/ piano/ synth player to complete the new band. We are a friendly, open minded, down to earth bunch so no egos here : ) ... we're all about enjoying playing together, helping each other out with the songs and getting on with creating two great sets and playing live hopefully from around spring 2019.... and importantly having a lot of fun doing it.
You'd be playing the piano, keyboard, organ string, brass & synth sounds on covers and playing as part of a tight live band covering a wide range of pop, soul, funk, pop rock songs from the past 7 decades. You'll need your own gear and transport and be able to commit to practicing regularly most Weds evenings 7.45 pm - 10.45pm in Salisbury and giging 1-2 times a month... 3 max? once we are out live.
We are looking to play the well paid weddings , functions , parties and corp functions that Innervison played ( So not a casual pub band)
We rehearse in Salisbury in very pleasant surroundings with easy parking and unloading space, which are heated in winter, air conned in summer, tea, coffee, squash on tap and the odd beer or wine in the fridge : ) We're practicing with everything plugged straight into a digital mixer and feeding an individual stereo mix of the band out to everyone's headphone. So a nice controlled practice sound so we can hall ear what we are playing clearly and also save us all going deaf! ..so you wont need to lug any heavy amplifiers here: )
Artist wise, well be looking at everything from James Brown, Beatles, Tina Turner, Sister Sledge, Stevie wonder, Chic, Maddona, Bowie, MJ, Prince, Roachford, Gabrielle, to more recent artists like Lady Gagga, Sia, Katy Perry, Pink, DNCE, Killers, Maroon5, Mark Ronson, Walk the moon, Amy Winehouse, Arianda Grande, Ed Sheeran, Chainsmokers etc ....basically anything old or very new that will keep an audience up dancing for 2 x 1 hour live sets..
If your interested, want to chat, have any questions at all or would like to come along to one of the Wednesday practices? just let me know
The songs we are auditioning with are:
DNCE: cake by the ocean,Maroon5: Moves like Jagger
Roachford: Cuddly Toy
David Bowie: Lets Dance
Chainsmokers Side Effect
Maroon5 Moves like Jagger
Prince Purple Rain
