SEEKING
Rhythm Guitar, Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar.ABOUT
We are looking for a second guitarist or a bassist. I currently play bass out of nessesity, so if we found a bass player then I would just play guitar. We are a 3 piece band and want to fill out our sound. We also are looking for this additional person to be a well rounded songwriter and get involved in writing some awesome, raw, fun and catchy songs. We play all original music, but like jamming on covers for fun every now and then. We will be playing shows once we have enough songs that we are all happy with. We already have a bunch of songs done, but want to write more with another person involved in the band.
WE ARE:
- We are a "Hard Rock" band from Toronto. We have a jam space, and good song ideas
- We are seasoned musicians with vast musical backgrounds (this is not our first "picnic")
- We are in our late 20's
- We have careers that we unfortunately can't quit to pursue music on a "Full-Time" basis. So yes... We are "Jobbers". This is not a bad thing.
- Music is our very serious hobby, that we spend most of our free time pursuing.
- We have fun playing music, and do not take ourselves overly seriously.
YOU ARE:
- A seasoned musician, with a vast musical background and can appreciate all styles of music.
- Somewhat around our age (20-35ish) but none of this is set in stone. If you were 18 or 37 and you absolutely fit, then that would be awesome.
- You don't care that WE ALL have day jobs, and if you have one as well... Awesome, that means that you won't have trouble paying for stuff.... like nice gear, and beer.
- THIS IS NOT YOUR FIRST BAND EVER.
- Preferably you are a good singer as well as a good guitar player.
- You have played on stage before, and know how to be comfortable on stage
- Musically, you know how to play with a group and know your place in a song.
- You have decent gear... Basically, you appreciate sound quality and you DON'T just plug in your "Fender Squire", through your "Metalzone Pedal", into your old "Peavey Bandit". Think the exact opposite of that... Nice, good sounding gear that doesn't make us wish we didn't have ears.
- You know who YOU are as a person, and don't have to be babysat. We would prefer a confident well rounded person who doesn't create Drama... We are the Opposite of Drama and are looking for someone who is easy going.
- You would not be adverse to playing a style of music along the lines of, but NOT LIMITED TO the following artists: The Hives, The White Stripes, The Arctic Monkeys, Bruce Springsteen, ACDC, The Black Keys, The Flaming Lips, Rage Against The Machine, Queens of a Stoneage.
- Finally... YOU LIKE TO ROCK OUT.
So... let me know if you might be this person?
