High-performing covers band Indie Rock Riot require a talented and super-reliable second guitarist to join us on the next stage of our journey. Our current guitarist is struggling with the pressures of a young family and needs to step down.
Our repertoire features songs by Foo Fighters, Killers, Stereophonics, Arctic Monkeys, Feeder, Oasis, Kaiser Chiefs and many, many others - you get the picture.
We gig 25+ times per year across the Midlands and - potentially - further afield so we need someone who is sufficiently committed to put in some hard yards. This will be for the love of playing, not for financial gain - our standard fee is £300, shared between 5. Our repertoire of 35+ songs has been nailed for ages so we rarely rehearse; obviously, bringing on a new member will require serious rehearsal time and this will be at my studio in the middle of Telford.
The reward is joining a group of 4 great, welcoming guys and having the satisfaction of playing driving, dynamic music to an extremely high performance level. We get rave reviews everywhere we play, even though pub audience numbers are often disappointing - seeking better venues will be part of our next phase.
We are not fussed about age or gender but you will need to be an experienced, versatile musician with a pro attitude, capable of taking the occasional solo. You will work closely with our exceptional lead guitarist to forge a close-knit partnership. You should have pro gear (and a mastery of that gear) and be sufficiently free of other commitments so that potential bookings are not compromised.
Apologies for the long message - taking on a new member as a successful band is a challenging step and we want to be super-clear about our requirements and the demands of the role.
If you are interested, please text or WhatsApp me (Ned, drummer) on 07514 665 044.
Many thanks for your attention.
