I'm a folk-rock singer-songwriter. I've been likened in some ways to Dave Matthews Band and Neil Young. Over the past 15 years, I've played mostly around the Niagara Region, Toronto, and southern Ontario. I toured out to eastern Canada in June 2010 and will be touring there again for two weeks this September-October.
I need *EXPERIENCED, PROFESSIONAL, DEDICATED, and RELIABLE* musicians to join me mainly in any of these roles:
- lead guitar
- bass
- drums
- saxophone
- keyboards
- backing vocals
- booker/manager
I don't want musicians-for-hire that are looking for a side-project, but some fun, friendly folks that want to be "in the band" full time. This includes being available at least once a week for rehearsals in St.Catharines and being willing to offer input and share responsibilities as a band member (ie - transportation, promotion, etc.). All band members get paid fairly from each paid gig.
