SEEKING
Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Trumpet, Saxophone.ABOUT
I am seeking those " lead singers" who can the spotlight and who can also play one of the instruments listed (below):
Bass with lead vox
Saxophonist with lead vox ability, needed.
Lead guitarist with lead vox ability
Trumpet player (bonus)
I am building a "70's inspired" solid, jazz-funk, energy-driven group. Tentatively, there is a drummer, bassist and one lead guitarist. Hoping to hear from "more" players who have the same goals.
* Improv skills are a great asset.
Myself: (As a pro keys player / lead singer), I have over 40+ years stage experience. I need to get together with players who have played many of the artists (as per my influences) listed below and who bring extensive performance experience to the mix. Players with great improv and quick-learning skills are ideal.
Rehearsal space: (on our property, SE of Summerside). So, having access to a vehicle and having cell (with texting, etc) will be necessary.
* Excellent communication is essential.
Rehearsal times (twice per month) to be determined.
