Hello there, my name is Michael and I have a job opportunity for a Singer/Guitarist. I run a function banded called ‘The Ultimate Party Band UK’ and we’re in need of a new Singer Guitarist to join our ranks. We are a professional function band, we work with Royal Caribbean Cruises all over the world as well as performing at weddings, bars, night clubs and festivals back in the UK. We have a contract on Royal Caribbean Mariner Of The Seas in America starting 15th January and running until 1st August and we have a full in guitarist to cover the first part of the contract but ideally want a full time replacement to join us as soon as possible.
About the band, we’re a 4 piece band consisting of Drums, Bass/vocals, Guitar/vocals and Lead vocals and we perform to backing tracks with cues. The rep we have is above 300 songs and is a mix of Rock/Pop/Soul/Motown/Disco/Dance/Trance/Country/Indie and all the major hits from the 60’s up to the modern day chart fillers. We aim to put on the best show and create the best party atmosphere possible at all of our gigs.
Requirements for Royal Caribbean:
Must either have or be willing to get a CD/1 visa for the USA and a Royal Caribbean medical check.
Contracts are typically 6 months long with no fly backs so you must be able to be away from home for this length of time and we typically get anywhere between 2 and 4 months off between contracts.
Requirements from us:
You must be able to play guitar rhythm and lead to a professional level as well as sing lead vocals to a professional level.
Pay you can expect:
Royal Caribbean pay 2,900$US per month (around £2,200 after conversion rate) for 3-5 sets per day 6 days per week
Land gigs in the UK average around £150-£200 per gig
