Hi everyone,
Im Mick.
I play drums and have been a Jazz Fusion fan for 40 years. Last year I met a great guitarist who has similar musical interests to me and we talked about starting a Fusion covers band. We now have a bass player and would love to find a keyboard player and take things further. We’d like to add more soloists moving forward. Maybe Sax player or Trumpet (Contact me if you play Sax or Trumpet) 😉but any instrument would be considered as long as you like to solo and improvise.
We would essentially like to keep on the easier side of fusion and keep it very listenable. We’re aiming to jam around a bit, get a set together, rehearse and see where it goes with getting some gigs.
If you’re into this stuff please get in touch, we are not worried at all if you’re new to it. It really doesn’t matter. All 3 of us are new to playing fusion together but all have done the covers band circuit away from each other for years.
So If you’re looking for something new to solo over or into prog rock maybe? Then this stuff might suit you.
We will not be going down a studio, handing out scores and then 5 seconds later counting you in and expecting you to sight read whatever, that’s not us at all!
I’ll put a couple of tracks here that we’ve decided on for a first rehearsal in a couple of weeks. Have a listen and if you think you could fit in and enjoy soloing over some of this stuff please get in touch.
