SEEKING
Drums, Background Singer.ABOUT
I am a gigging professional who is in search of a solid drummer to join my band. Although I have originals that I want to develop, our gigs are primarily up tempo, blues and rock covers, and I always get re-booked.
I am seeking a drummer who is willing to rehearse weekly, based on minimum monthly live bookings.
I pay each musician a flat rate per paying gig. If the venues/revenues grow I will gladly increase this for the right person. No additional work is required (promoting, poster design\distribution, gig bookings, etc), just play and be properly prepared for live performances. Currently one gig per month but plan to increase this.
If you are an accomplished percussionist, love music are reliable and professional, please contact me.
