Experienced singer-songwriter, very good rhythm, lead and slide guitar, and lead vox.
forming an LP original, gigging, recording band.
Off the beaten path covers.
See below.
1\.
Drums/Percussion: Looking for a drummer who loves the song as much or more than the drums.
Pocket/feel drummer.
Steve Gadd, Jeff Porcaro, Ritchie Heywood, Clude Stubblefield etc
Vox = big plus.
2\.
Guitarist(s): Would like a second player and maybe a third (acoustic, special guitar sounds
maybe) who might double on keys.
Vox = big plus.
3\.
Bass: Musical and rhythmic playing.
Paul M, James J.
Etc someone who can improvise with a band (like Phil Lesh) is what’s needed really at this point.
the guys I have now go out and come back different.
And it’s great.
Vox = big plus.
You can find a number of songs I’ve written on the artist page for John Frantz in Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music etc.
Start with “Turquoise Fete”
For covers, so far:
Little Feat, Tedeschi Trucks, jam bands, James Cotton…
unusual covers: I have cool arrangements of Summertime, Sleepwalk
My experience is that folks love a jamming band with vocals.
They won’t miss the hits of yesteryear.
I am motivated to put together this group.
We have two good guitarists, vocalists and one who can do keys.
Would consider another dedicated keyboard guy.
Need drums and bass mostly.
Sing=good.
