ABOUT
We are a working 7-pc show band with horn section performing great dance rock and R&B music from the 60's 70's and some 80's. When performing, we currently contract out the lead guitar job, but due to distance he can't commit to joining the band. We need a versatile strong player who can move from "China Grove" to "Midnight Hour" to join the band and be part of our team. We all have professional lives outside of the band, but take the music very seriously and yet are very relaxed with the ego and attitude. We hold vocal rehearsals separately from band rehearsals. Rehearsals are in Dundalk Ontario (Little north of Shelburne), but the musical experience just might be worth the drive. We are NOT a bar band and our renumeration is commensurate with our talent and quality of show. (1000-2000 per show) Rehearsal schedule can be modified to accommodate the distance issue if needed. If you wish to sit in, choose 5-8 songs from our website and call or text Wayne at 519 939 0220. Our average age is over 50. Visit the band site for more information.
