Experienced singer-songwriter, very good rhythm, lead and slide guitar, lead vox.
forming an original, gigging, recording band.
This group is not for a laugh or a few gigs.
Not something to do in your retirement.
While I do intend to play the group out at wineries and etc to get it together, what I will do eventually is to promote the band as an originals thing with folks I know in the music business.
Off the beaten path covers.
See below.
We have guitar and bass now.
Looking for--
1.
Drums/Percussion: Looking for a drummer who loves songs.
Pocket/feel drummer.
Steve Gadd, Jeff Porcaro, Ritchie Heywood, Clyde Stubblefield etc…If you are unable to send me some of your own audio file (off a smart phone is fine) then please don’t bother.
I need to hear you drum before I set a time to play with the guys I have.
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 hipper arrangements of Summertime, Sleepwalk
My experience is that folks love a jamming band with vocals.
I have a Spotify list of the covers we have so far.
Thanks
John
