Bassist and Drummer wanted for Hard Rock covers band.
UPDATE - MUSICIANS NOW FOUND! Thank you to all who applied, we have now found a bassist and drummer!
Bassist and Drummer wanted for hard rock band.
We are an established hard rock covers band from Witney, Oxfordshire, all in our 30's, and we are looking for a Drummer and Bassist!!! Our current bassist and Drummer have left together to concentrate on an originals project so we have an opening and we would like to hear from you!!!
We cover songs by Black Sabbath, Kiss, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Deep Purple and other similar bands. We play good, high energy hard rock covers that make people want to move. We see ourselves as a fun, high energy, party band and would like to put on a good show that engages the audience and leave them wanting more!!!
We need a dynamic bassist and drummer to complete the lineup and turn us back into a 4 piece. If you can sing backing vocals as well that is a bonus.
What we are looking for in a bassist and drummer
>Someone easy going and relaxed; positive and up for a good time. (Ego maniacs need not apply)
>Technically proficient and has a grasp of music theory
>Can learn music by tab and by ear
>Has improvisational skills
>Has own quality, gig grade gear
>Has own transport and can get to and from gigs self sufficiently
>Gigging experience not necessary as long as the skill is there and you have the gear.
We have our own, high quality 2800 watt PA system with Subwoofers which can comfortably cover gigs of up to 500 people. The PA can take DI from bass if your rig is geared up as such with a DI box. As guitarists we play through combo amps mic'd through the PA for FOH sound and monitoring.
We rehearse once a week (usually a Tuesday), currently in Witney, Oxfordshire and try to gig once a month (sometimes more in festival season if the slot arises). Not looking to make music our careers in any way, the band is just a hobby so we can have a laugh and justify our severe cases of Gear Acquirement Syndrome to our partners haha!
With regards to originals this is not something we wish to do at this time, we are a covers only band.
Please note all applicants must have own transport and gig grade gear, no exceptions.
If you are interested drop me a message.
