Jazz instrument players wanted for live hiphop / cross-genre band!
I am a musician, composer, and producer with around 7 years live experience including gigs & sound design at:
The Cavern Club - Liverpool
The Windmill - Brixton
The Good Ship - West London
Tate Liverpool
Unity Theatre - Liverpool
Contact Theatre - Manchester
Liverpool Biennial
I am looking for:
musicians who are comfortable / competent at either reading msuic and / or playing by ear, as I have written scores and produced tracks which will be recreated live.
Experience of live gigs is preferable, whether in a band, orchestra or ensemble.
You must be able to rehearse the group initially at least once a week, with the aim to do live gigs several times a month in the near future.
I'm not fussed about age (as long as over 1, gender, influences or qualifications, as long as you are open-minded in your music listening and a competent player!
I have a very wide range of influences myself, but the style we are looking at is similar to these artists:
Bugseed
MF Doom / Viktor Vaughn
Madvillain
Film noir filmscores
The Mouse Outfit
Riot Jazz
Lewis Parker
Foreign Beggars
Contact Play
Children of the Damned
Defenders of Style
Rhyme Asylum
Soweto Kinch
Please check out these artists to check a taste of what we will be creating.

Rehearsals are likely to be in Bletchley, but this may change depend on where is most convenient for the band overall – general vicinity of Beds/Bucks/Milton Keynes
