Rhythm guitarist who can do back up vocals wanted for Me first & The Gimme Gimmes style covers band.
I say 'style' we literally cover their covers of classic 60s, 70s, 80s and country hits in their 90s So-Cal Punk Rock style.
We also do a few more covers of NOFX, Weezer, Lagwagon, Goldfinger, Offspring, Sublime, Pennywise, Greenday etc.
We rehearse once or twice a month, we have at least 1 hour set list nailed and up to 2 hours of decent enough sounding songs.
We've been together about a year and a half practicing once or twice a month. We've taken our time as we all have families and jobs, but it now sounds pretty tight. Looking to get gigging ASAP with a view to actually earning money from this by early next year.
WE need a rhythm guitarist to take over those duties from our lead singer so he can focus more on his vocals and stage presence.
YOU would ideally be a somewhat experienced guitarist who can learn songs relatively quickly, have some live experience, have some stage presence and ideally able to do some back up vocals (nothing fancy just a few 'oohs' and 'aahhs' and some easy barber shop stuff for the 60s songs)
We currently practice in either Crowborough or Edenbridge and are based from Orpington down to Upper Dicker so a fair spread across Kent and Sussex. Open to other practice spaces for convenience of all.
We are are all blokes our late 30s have played out instruments since we were teenagers and I'd say aren't half bad at it. We don't care about age, gender or what have you. If you like and can play punk rock and can sing a little, we want to hear from you!
Give me a shout and I'll send you our set list. Cheers!
