solo4652 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 Folks, I'm looking for a covers band playing groove-based pop, soul, indie, funky stuff, preferably fronted by a female singer. Sort of a wine-bar vibe without being elevator music or too mushy. Don't really want loud, 2-guitar classic rock, or anything too blokey or testosterone-fuelled, thank you. I have loads of time available for practice, rehearsals and gigs. I'm mature and reliable, and I learn songs before rehearsals - yes! Open to all suggestions and ideas, Steve Quote
BassBunny Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Hi Steve, 1) I thought you were sorted! 2) Not many of those type of bands around our area as there aren't many wine bars anymore. Just joking on point 2. I think I know what you are after and I'll keep my ears open. Edited October 4, 2012 by BassBunny Quote
MB1 Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 MB1. Whine Bar? A shop thats previously gone out of business that now has a tacky veranda and chairs outside! Serving overpriced warm bottled beer. (Perfect for those warm evenings in sunny Mancunia). Quote

[/quote] Hello mate, 1) Well, I'm looking for something that's a better fit with my natural likes to run alongside the rock covers band. 2) Exactly! There are loads of pub-rock bands but not many cool-vibe female-singer outfits. Thanks for keeping me in mind, Steve Quote

Is that to cut out the middle-man, ie. the customer? Quote
solo4652 Posted October 13, 2012 Author Posted October 13, 2012 Bump up. The covers band is self-destructing, so I'm [i]definitely[/i] looking for a new project now. Quote
