ABOUT

Hi, y'all

I'm a singer/songwriter based in East London, and I'm looking to assemble a bad-ass band of killer musicians for an exciting studio project (August 2016).

First, let me give you a sample of songs I've written, as well as played on-

This is a playlist of songs I wrote in the band, 'Zalinski' -http://www.thesixtyone/Zalinski/#/s/2GX6fW1jOow/

And here are my most recent recordings as a 'solo' artist -

By the end of August 2016, we (myself, drummer, producer) hope to record 5 new, upbeat songs that feature a 'Motown' style band (Drums, bass, horns, keyboards, backing singers...the lot). We're aiming/hoping to create a kind of contemporary Motown sound that sounds both new and familiar. For this, we will need passionate, friendly, and drama-less musicians, who love to get creative.

However, as we're only currently looking for people to help us get the tracks ready for production, we don't require a high level of commitment and can work around you.

The first step is to find a good Bass player. We are looking for someone who can help us lock down the essential components of the track/song (drums,guitar,bass) with flair. It is only after that will we begin seeking keyboards, guitar, horns etc

Once the songs are recorded, we will start assembling the live band. Then, through a manager, we will only perform gigs that will benefit us. We aim to avoid lugging equipment to empty venues in the middle of nowhere. Been there, done that.


So,

Do you enjoy playing jazz, pop, funk, blues, soul? Do you pride yourself on being a 'phat' player? Can you create 'on the fly'? Can you commit to two meets a month? Do you appreciate a 'good hang' with 'good folks?'

If your answer is yes to all these questions, please get in touch.

Thanks!
