Seeking Keyboard Player -Anchorage AK – 1166398

Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,


03-25-12 – Seattle, WA – Like many folks, a guitarist friend and I both put music on the back burner for many years to raise kids and make a living. We are fortunate enough to have the time, and the means to allow us to devote time and energy to our music without having the pressure of “making it pay the rent”. Our goals are to grow as musicians, have a good time playing together and create opportunities for great creative sessions. We connected with and are now playing with a bassist and second guitarist who have similar goals and interests. We are now looking for a keyboard player. We are open to all sorts of music but we definitely have interests in classic soul (love that B3 sound), Jack Johnson type stuff as well as some old school blues and B-side type cool rock tunes. The only thing we ask is that fellow musicians leave drama, substance abuse issues, and strong egos at the door. We have a great rehearsal space and like to get together as often as possible.
Interested? Then please, reflect on your goals…and if they are in alignment with our goals, please drop me an email.

WantedLead guitarback-up singer – 1116475

11-30-11 – San Francisco, CA>Reno, NV – Wanted:Lead guitar/back-up singer for 60s-70s classic rock cover band
Wanted: Lead guitar player/back-up singer for 60s-70s classic rock cover band
WE ARE: A 4-piece 60s-70s classic rock cover band (not a tribute band), and we also play a few 80s-90s classic rock covers. We emphasize tight 3-part harmonies to cover the Beatles, Byrds, Eagles, etc.
We rehearse about once a week at my home studio in Mill Valley, usually on a week night, depending on our work schedules. We have our own pro gear, system and transportation.
We gig generally 1-2 times a month on Saturday nights—mostly at bars that pay $250-$300 in San Francisco, San Mateo, Cotati, and other Bay Area cities. We also occasionally play higher-paying private parties. We all have day jobs and play for the love of the music, not to make a living from it or to become rock stars.
YOU ARE: A reliable, mature, and versatile lead guitarist who can sing back-up and harmony and who knows how to blend well with the band’s sound—-no ear-shattering Van Halen arpeggios, soaring Satriani 20-minute solos, or metal shredding–just straight-ahead tasteful leads covering classics by the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Kinks, ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Byrds, Eagles, Tom Petty, Neil Young, Stevie Ray Vaughan, etc.
You are also a non-smoker with no substance abuse issues, drama, or inflated rock star attitude. You also don’t mind being in a band with musicians who are over 50.
You’d be satisfied limiting your lead vocals to only a few songs per set.
