ABOUT

SEEKING KEYS
(with rhythm guitar a plus, but NOT required)
Good backing vocals another plus, but again, not required.

Basement project formed by musicians that have gigged for decades. For the time-being, this endeavor is slated to be a "basement hang" project with no explicit plans to gig (yet?).

We're looking to hone our long-desired side project that focusses on (old) Van Halen and Led Zeppelin songs.

About you:
Keyboard player with a passion for LZ and/or VH (Roth era) music, and secondarily (not required) solid rhythm guitar. The guitar aspect is not required, just a nice-to-have for those tunes that have no keys in them.

Most important to all of this; "the hang". Sure, there's a slight possibility the stars will align and we find a path to take this out in front of an audience, but first and foremost, we are seeking people that we like; no egos, good at what they do, chill, no drama, fun & funny, down-to-earth, etc.

While keys are not a requirement of this "for-fun" project, I would much rather have a human who can play the parts rather than triggering key/synth parts and having to force the music to stick to a strict click/tempo when in reality, this music should be allowed to breathe (like the originals) regarding tempos and "pregnant pauses". While I can do (and have done) the "Click in the in-ears" thing for years triggering augmentation tracks and samples, I'd much rather be "present" in the music and in the moment this time around.

So... if you're a good player, a chill hang, and you would enjoy performing old LZ and VH tunes with no pressure or gigging (yet?)... drop us a note and we'll talk.

Thanks in advance.

VIDEOS: First one (The Rock Blocks) is a more-recent clip from 2019 with myself on lead vox/drums, Rob on guitar, and Jim on bass - doing some VH. The other two are older "BIG 80'S" videos with Rob and myself.
