Guitarist needed for Americana & Roots Rock Band
We’re a North Wiltshire based band playing Americana and Roots- Rock music. We’re looking for another guitarist to join us our existing line up of female lead vocals, guitar (acoustic, electric & slide), fiddle, bass & drums. Most of us sing as well, so the band features lots of harmony vocals. It’s time to add another guitarist to fill our sound out and bring more versatility.
We play a wide range of music by the likes of Linda Ronstadt, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Jayhawks, CSN&Y, Steve Earl, The Band, The Byrds, Trisha Yearwood and Bonnie Raitt, as well as some traditional songs and fiddle tunes. There is some bluesy stuff in the set list too, and more in the pipeline – that’s the great thing about Americana music, the repertoire can be broad.
We’re looking for a guitarist who is comfortable playing lead and rhythm parts alongside our existing guitarist, able to play both acoustic and electric. We’re experienced musicians, so looking for someone who is at that level. If you sing as well, that’s great. If you play another instrument, (e.g. keys, harmonica, banjo, mandolin) that’s great, but not essential. And if you write your own stuff, we're keen to hear it!
We’re aiming to play around one gig a month (some already in the calendar), and rehearse weekly as far as possible.
