| Description: |
Excellent function band with quality vocals requires guitarist able to play across a range of styles, as our current guitarist has decided to go in a different musical direction (it’s all amicable btw).
We play a wide range of songs and styles, from the Chuck Berry era 1950’s to tracks by Ed Sheeran and DNCE via Chic and Queen, so we need a versatile guitarist who can play anything from funk to rock and everything in between. Ideally but not essentially you’ll be able to carry a tune too.
You’ll need to be able to solo both freeform and in the style of other guitarists (Slash/Richie Sambora/Brian May) for some of the cover material we play. And you’ll need to leave your ego at the door – no primadonnas please (we won’t be supplying you with kittens to dry your face on).
You’ll need your own transport as we play at venues across the West Midlands (mostly). We have bookings in the diary up to August 2018. We only very rarely play in pubs. Pay averages between £100 - £140 per gig.
We have almost 1500 Facebook likes (genuine ones) and you can see the band online at www.greenoysterband.com and www.facebook.com/greenoysterband
Our ages range from 33 to 50, and our lineup is vocal/guitar/bass/keys/drums so we need someone who will fit in visually. We rehearse in Dudley on Sunday evenings.
If this sounds like you, please get in touch giving some examples of material you’ve played on (if you can). We’ll be holding some auditions as soon as possible as we’d like to get someone quickly. |
