Drummer AND Bassist required for Stockport function band
Guitarist and Vocalist/Keys seek Bassist and Drummer for new lineup
We're connected with venues already with our other bands and can hit the ground running as a couple of them are ready to offer us dates as soon as our lineup is complete. We play to a high standard and are looking for likeminded people to get our new lineup on the road

Setlist consists of standard function tunes (Mr. Brightside, Sweet Child O Mine, Livin' on a Prayer, Rolling in the Deep and all the other usual suspects) coupled with wanting to add some contemporary tunes that will pack the dancefloor but we don't see other bands on the circuit covering (Harry Styles/The Weeknd/Britney/Taylor Swift)
Once we've got some regular function slots we're aspiring to get a showreel sorted and posted on agency websites for corporate/wedding opportunities.
IMPORTANT full disclosures we want to be upfront about:
Due to our existing commitments, we are NOT looking to audition anybody until mid December! We're putting this feeler out there now so we can hit the ground running as soon as we're able to get together. If you want to let us know you're interested and we sound like a good fit then we'll keep in touch til Dec
We're looking to gig roughly twice a month to balance with the other bands we're each in. If this is an ideal number of gigs for you and not too much given your existing commitments / not too little given your ambitions, then we'll be a good fit
We're after likeminded folk who agree on the setlist we have a vision for, and don't mind "selling out" and playing the odd Taylor Swift tune for the greater good (getting the dancefloor packed and therefore repeat bookings) as opposed to playing tunes that WE like but audiences don't 😂
We're in the SK postcode area and don't want to be spread too far from each other, so please be sure this area is okay with you or you're cool with gigging in this area - although we do have contacts in and around Manchester so we imagine we'll be gigging that way occasionally too
Have your own travel and decent gear please
Desk / speakers a bonus, let us know if you have these as it's always handy to have backup gear
Backing vocals a huge bonus but not necessary so there's zero pressure to add any BV's if you don't feel too confident with your vox
PLEASE include some live footage of yourself playing when you DM me
