The Holy Smokes are an active, gigging band that focuses on covering Alternative music from the 90's and 00's with some choice 80's and late 70's for good measure. We are currently looking for a male lead singer to complete the band. Right now we all sing, but we want to take our band a step further with someone who can come in, take over the lead vocals, own the mic, and do all the things a good lead singer does. If you can play an instrument, that's a big plus but not a requirement. If you're someone who sings in multiple bands, that's fine but we need your commitment to rehearsing regularly in our band and showing up for the gigs. In other words, you have to be reliable and someone we can count on. We think we have a pretty good thing going on here and it should be worth your while. We rehearse once a week, so you'll need to do your homework. The usual requirements are necessary - transportation, no drunks or druggies, no egos or bad attitudes, etc... We are all very easy to get along with so you should be too. We are currently lining up gigs for this year so come be an asset to this band, have some fun, and make a few bucks as well. Please provide a video or audio of your singing abilities. Playlist will be provided after we see or hear what you're all about. Thanks for looking!
