Hey there.
We're The Corduroys; a group of nice boys who play music your Nan would like.
We’re still a relatively new band, having formed the current incarnation in 2022. Our drummer has taken a permanently Antipodean direction, and so we are searching for someone new to provide a beat and look cool at the back.
It's early days still, so you'd be getting in at the ground floor. We are aiming to become a regularly gigging band, playing at pubs and various functions in south Wales and beyond, with a niche focus on 60s/70s covers. We do covers of more modern stuff too, but we tend to do it in a 'Kinks-y' style.
The best way to get a sense of what we do is to watch some of our songs on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089753097824.
We practice at least once a fortnight at Music Box in Cardiff, and we're looking to be gigging regularly at weekends. We need someone who is interested in the vision/style/vibe and can make that time commitment. We are more interested in how you fit in than your technical abilities, and obviously it would help if you like this style/era of music.
Who we are:
Jim - Lead vocals, bass
Gareth - Lead guitar, backing vocals
James - Rhythm guitar, gaffer
We range in age from 20s to 50s.
What happens next?
If you're interested, get in touch (see below). We'll then ask you to learn a handful of songs from our set list, and we'll arrange an informal jam at Musicbox, Cardiff at a time of mutual convenience (we typically book 3 hours slots once per week Tuesday-Thursday evenings, 7-10pm) to see how it goes.
We're a relaxed group and while we work hard to sound good, we ultimately do it for the fun of it.
You can message us here or on Facebook or email corduroystheband@gmail.com.
We look forward to hearing from you.
