Hi, we're an established,mature 50's/60's rock n roll/rockabilly band seeking a new lead singer. Or bass player who is a lead singer too.
Must be experienced & know and like this sort of music.
The band has been going about 3 to 4 years now playing mostly social clubs/occasional pubs in and around Essex/South Suffolk. About one gig a month give or take.
Based around the Colchester area, looking to practice probably at Unit One/Black Cactus in Colchester, Stagg at Witham or somewhere in between best for everyone's location.
Daytime/eves/possible weekend practice. Whenever's best.
We've pretty much completed this years gigs and plan to take time out & re-boot with a new m/f singer/bass leadvox.
