SEEKING
Trumpet, Other Percussion, Drums.ABOUT
My first single is coming out this month, and I'm looking for reliable band members for live gigs in London. Gig size varies between really good support slots, and some headline. Also some London festivals (Camden Crawl, currently booking more).
The music is freak folk with blues/pop/burlesque overtones. There's label interest and it's undergoing some fun development. I'm looking for:
* DRUMS / PERCUSSION - some tracks have a lot of swing so you can let loose, others are quieter and need rhythmic texture. Tom is leaving us in August, so you would need to be up to speed from July.
* Brass - for recording and live gigs.
Re payment - if I get paid then you get paid, and if you co-write tracks then you get a share of the royalties.
