RocknRoll Band Looking For Lead Vocalist M/F
Hi, we’re an established,mature 50’s/60’s rock n roll/rockabilly band seeking a new lead singer. M/F.
Must be experienced & know/ like this sort of music.
The band has been going about 3 to 4 years now playing mostly social clubs/occasional nice pubs in and around Essex/Suffolk about one gig a month give or take. 12 to 15 a year.
Based around the Colchester area, usually practicing at Unit One or Black Cactus in Colchester area. Can be altered though due to singer’s location.
Daytime/eves/possible weekend practice. Whenever’s best.
We have started taking bookings for this year, but plan to take time out & re-boot before that with the lead vox. M/F.
We’ve got about 35 to 40 songs on the go including stuff like..
Move It-Cliff & the Shadows
Pretty Woman-Roy Orbison
Love Potion No 9-our version!
Nadine-Chuck B
Shaking All Over-Johnny Kidd
Little Sister-Elvis
Hippy Hippy Shake-SBJ’s
Burning Love-Elvis
Do You Want To Dance-Cliff
Summertime Blues-Brian Setzer
What’d I Say-Ray Charles

Route 66-Dr. Feelgood

If you’ve never heard of Carl Perkins, don’t know Jeanie Jeanie Jeanie or think Love Potion No 9 is a drink, this probably isn’t for you. 😉

Must have own PA (or prepared to get one) transport/be able to drive.
Any questions fire away…just no daft ones. 🤪
Thanks for reading!
