Altitude Groove + Band in Fort Collins, CO

SEEKING

ABOUT

We are looking for a veteran, versatile lead guitarist. The ability to sing background harmonies is a plus, but not mandatory for the right guitar player. Lead vocals are also a plus but not required. But must be able to play funk rhythms and also play strong rock and blues solos - and even country.

We are also looking for a strong singer (male or female) that can sing funk, R&B, and rock songs. We have a powerful female front singer but would like to add a second front singer to create a dynamic front duo. Must be able to sing harmonies and be comfortable moving on stage.

We are a funk / R&B / classic rock band named Altitude Groove. Please visit www.AltitudeGroove.com for more details about the band, including photos, promo video and audio recordings.

We are a fairly new band and have only played a few gigs so far but have several gigs booked. Our website and marketing is in place so we’ll be booking more gigs. Our target market is corporate events, high-end weddings and clubs. The plan is to only play 1 - 3 gigs per month.

We rehearse in South Fort Collins (right on the Loveland border, close to I-25). I have a fully equipped and sound-proofed rehearsal room with PA, mics, synthesizers, guitar amp, and drum set.

We will play gigs anywhere from Fort Collins to the Denver, Aurora, Littleton areas. As long as the pay justifies the distance.

See the promo video and the audio recordings, which are all live recordings.
