Looking For
- A couple of things. If you have a project and need supporting players, contact me. I work with singer-songwriters as well as cover situations, no problem. I am also looking for players interested in working in the Salt Lake City area for Festivals, Concerts, and Clubs. Everything from weddings (4-5 piece unit) to Summer Concerts and Festival. Small Band should have Guitar, Bass, Keys, Drums,Female Vocalist up frontwith wide range of songs for private events. Large band is rhythm section with Trumpet, Trombone, and Sax minimum, with two vocalists up front. Rhythm players should be able to sing unless you are an extraordinary soloist! (then you get a pass) but we're looking for people that can share the load fronting the band as each musician will have their chance to shine. Please be willing to perform the "songs people like" initially and be open minded for adding interesting material as the bands become more popular.
