Two experienced, 30-something, married with children musicians seeking to bust forth a new groove on Central Illinois.
We're seeking: Drummer w/ electronic, or partial electronic set. Vocal ability, MIDI experience and playing to a click track a + Bass player that can bring the funk. Vocal ability a + Keyboard player. Vocal ability, MIDI experience, horns all a + Female vocalist – preferably playing one of the parts above. Horn experience a + Tight songs, sets that keep the dance floor flowing, and borderline over the top high-energy entertainment. We're gonna be good, but we have other lives also – max 2 practices/month, max 1 gig out/month, average. We're looking for fellow musicians in the same stage of life and with similar personalities - musicians wanting to play with a good band, have a great time doing it, but also have a multitude of other life commitments other than music.
