Highly experienced pro level mature bass player looking for a new project as from the new year 2017. Ideally looking for a covers band aimed at pubs/clubs/functions, although any other combo considered-duo, trio, tribute band, swing band etc? With the right people I also wouldn't rule out working on a start up outfit; not necessarily looking to join an established band although this is preferred, also have a pro level reading drummer available if this were the case? Any genre considered, very open minded and have no preferences but no original material please, having previously tried it I am now only interested in what guarantees work-covers. I'm open to all suggestions at the moment provided the end product is to a good standard but no inexperienced beginners/wannabes please, age is no issue tho, have been in bands with ages ranging from 16 to 70. I'm grade 8 with 35 yrs experience of which 3 yrs at pro level having done seasons abroad, able to sight read well lead sheets charts and transcribed, good busker and a very fast learner with new material, also available to dep at short notice for reading gigs. I also play a little guitar and can add vocals. I have a large collection of pro level gear, several basses 4/5 string, some PA gear, lights/effects and transport. GSOH and very easy going but also focused with a pro attitude, reliable, no ego, very keen, good team player with a good work ethic. Able and willing to rehearse within a reasonable travelling distance anywhere in the Midlands, I'm centrally based. Due to other work commitments I'm only looking for a semi pro position involving mainly w'end gigging, however I can be a little flexible with availability. If interested please PM me with your contact details and I will contact you with more in depth info. Many thanks for reading this add, I look forward to meeting like minded musos.
