Bassist wanted for London hard rock/pop covers band (Bon Jovi, G'n'R, Poison etc)

[TKenrick]

A friend is after a bassist for a covers band and I can't commit to it, please find details below and get in touch with Michael if you're interested:

 

We are a female fronted covers band, with two guitarists who share both the rhythm and lead work.  We had a drummer and a bass player during the early stages of starting but they have since decided that they cannot commit.  However, the three of us have ploughed on with getting our set list and repertoire of songs together by rehearsing to drum and bass backing tracks. 

 

Whilst the backing tracks have served their purpose until now, we really want to bring a bass player into our rehearsals and a drummer in around a month or so to complete the line-up and start booking ourselves gigs around London and the home counties.  One of our guitarists has the contacts to get great shows and great venues booked and we are excited to get to this stage by the time summer is out.

 

Our songs so far contain all the classics that people expect from a covers band called SpandX (Bon Jovi, GNR, Poison etc) through to modern day pop and rock, albeit with a slightly more rocky and live edge to it to keep the set energised. 

 

The whole aim of this is to have fun, make people dance and rock out!  We are all really committed and rehearse weekly on Saturdays in Paddington at Westbourne Rehearsal Studios. 

Below is an insight into some of the songs we have added to our repertoire:

·         Love Runs Out – OneRepublic

·         Stop & Stare – OneRepublic

·         Livin On A Prayer – Bon Jovi

·         You Give Love A Bad Name – Bon Jovi

·         Nothin But A Good Time – Poison

·         Since You Been Gone – Kelly Clarkson

·         The Middle – Jimmy Eat World

·         Lifestyles Of The Rich & Famous – Good Charlotte

·         Sweet Child – GNR

·         Don’t Stop Believin – Journey

·         Misery Business – Paramore

·         Edge Of Glory – Lady Gaga

·         Physical – Dua Lipa

There are more to list, but we can discuss this with anyone who is keen to explore the opportunity with us.

 

If you are interested, you must have your own gear that can be used to gig – modelling unit/amp etc.  Both guitarists use professional level amp modellers that go direct to the PA to keep the sound consistent.  We also would appreciate someone that can bring their flair to the setlist and contribute to the arrangement of our covers as well as tracks to add.

 

If you are interested, please contact Michael on 07714385122 to discuss things further.
