Band Seeking Vocalist- Omaha NE - 1145702
02-02-12 - Omaha, NE>Des Moines, IA - The Big Deep is looking for an accomplished female vocalist to sing backing harmonies. Violin and/or keyboard skills are a big plus, but not necessarily required.
We are a newer, but pretty established Omaha band. We played at MAHA Music Festival this year, just released our debut album and are nominated for "Best New Artist" by the Omaha Entertainment and Arts awards.
All recordings on our debut album feature backing female harmonies, but they were recorded by friends who are too busy fronting their own bands to play with us full-time.
We range in ages from 24 to 31 so we're looking for someone in their twenties. Check us out at If you are interested, find me on Facebook (Jared Bakewell) and we can discuss your abilities, our mutual expectations and whatnot. Cheers!

Looking For Keyboardists-Douds IA - 1145673
02-02-12 - Des Moines, IA>Kansas City, MO - Our four piece rock n roll/blues/swing/country standard/oldies band is looking for an experienced keyboard player/vocalist who can play other instrument(s) (horns would be a great plus)
Female vocalist/rhythm guitar, lead guitar/vocalist, bassist/backup vocal, and drummer/background vocals/fiddle are looking for a fifth member for our band, Geezer Nation, to play keyboards and rotate singing lead and harmony.
It is much preferable if you can play at least another instrument. Could be any of the instruments already covered (bass, guitar, percussion, fiddle) or horns. (I don't care, you could play bagpipes or squeeze box as long as you play it well). You should play keyboards first.
Band founders, Dug (percussionist/fiddle) and Lisa (vocalist/guitar) are very experienced accomplished, long time musicians (geezers). Mark (bassist/vocal, geezer) is multi-talented not only with the bass, but with guitar, mandolin and drums.
MunLai (lead guitar/vocals) is an honorary geezer (not sure how old he is - won't divulge - probably early thirties) is an amazing prodigy guitar player and an excellent vocalist.
We are considering adding a fifth member to our band if we can find the right geezer (you can be younger but must play and behave well with others).
We think there is a place for good lively music for dance and entertainment in the Christian / LDS or otherwise clean-seeking community. And we do believe that musicians of this attitude can make some good residual income besides having fun and enjoyment performing.
In this project expect to play locally, regionally or long distance gigs that time and circumstances would permit for those involved. This is NOT a full time, play every week band, however, we will be playing regularly, but not to interfere with our day jobs. You CAN be under 30 yrs old, but MUST BE mature and 'play well with others.' Typically we will be playing wedding/receptions, dances, dinner theaters, community celebrations, concerts, promotions or other venues where alcohol or other negative behaviors do not prevail.
Typically we would be doing four or five sets of covers or original versions of covers. We also play decent originals as well.
Covers would likely range from Beatles, ZZ Top, Patsy Cline, Elvis, Stevie Ray, Robben Ford, Garth Brooks, Wynonna, Reba McEntire, BB King, Patty Loveless, Carlene Carter, Los Lonely Boys, Brian Setzer, Aretha Franklin, Doobie Bros, James Brown, Riders in the Sky, Huey Lewis, Romantics, Vince Gill, Asleep at the Wheel, etc. As you can see, those interested should be well versed in swing/shuffle, blues as well as rock n roll and traditional country.
All joking aside, we are serious, and some here have played in some very seriously good bands with notable musicians from those genres. I would like to see what comes out of the woodwork. As one very good reformed session guy I played with said: "It is most important to be a good person first, and a good musician second."

Singers Wanted For Clube- Des Moines - 1144712
02-01-12 - Des Moines, IA>Omaha, NE - Looking for Frontman Singer to have fun and go the whole nine yards to make people relive the shows these bands put on.
We Know we may have trouble finding the person who can sing these 3 bands and remind people of Steven Pearcy, Brett Michaels and Vince Neil. So we are prepared to change the specific bands we do to fit a voice that can sing other bands.
But we are children of the Eighties and want to do the so called Hair Metal Pop Rock thing. The 3 bands mentioned are musically ready to be just tightened up with the right singer. The 2 guitarists, bass player and drummer are still practicing 3 times a week and just waiting for the singer.
Just remember if you can do a good job singing another Hair Metal band we can switch up the band line up. We all feel the band has to have been pretty big so we aren't doing 2 hit songs and ten nobody ever heard.

Vocalist background voices-Cedar Rapids - 1144537
01-31-12 - Des Moines, IA>Milwaukee, WI - I've been playing with a 6 piece jazzy/easy listening band in the Cedar Rapids area since 2008. Although we've been focusing on jazz standards, last year we added a horn section and introduced stuff from Chicago, Doors, James Brown, Stevie Wonder etc... I would like to add a female singer not only able to sing background voices of what we currently play, but also somebody able to perform as lead singer for snappy tunes: jazzy tunes, ABBA, Gloria Gaynor, Amy Winehouse, Norah Jones, Madonna and even current top 20 country/pop stuff. No experience required, but please understand that team player attitude is a must.
In addition, I'm looking for a male singer willing to do background voices and possibly sing tunes from Eagles, Queen, the Who and ideally top 20 country/pop. No experience required.
Since we have the horn section, I probably would focus on tunes with horns to take advantage of the brass section and I would avoid ballads for the moment. Usually, we practice Th in the Marion area 7-9pm
Last year we played at the Sweet Corn Festival, Linn County Fair, couple of weddings, cocktail parties , bars and charity events. The full band is not always required.
Give me a call, let's work out a couple of tunes and then meet the rest of the band and go from there.
As far as pay, we all have day jobs so the focus is on creating good stuff. We all get a cut from paid gigs but don't expect to make a living out of it just yet. ;-)
Thanks

Looking for Bassist - Omaha - 1140816
01-21-12 - Omaha, NE>Des Moines, IA - Our current bass player has an open invite to move out of the country and pursue some things he's wanted to do for a while so we're beginning the process of finding a new guy to take his spot
We are an all original band who gig frequently and are beginning the process of booking a 3 week tour in the fall. We recently released our debut record on vinyl (the 1st batch has sold out). We have aspirations of being more than just an Omaha band. We've got good gear (a good mixture of cool vintage and modern stuff) and know how to use it.
We're looking for a bass player between 20 and 30. Entwhistle, Geezer Butler and John Paul Jones are all good influences to have. We need someone who can really lock in with our drummer and throw in some good fills and be able to feel the mood and groove of our songs.
We ask that you have a job and a car so we know that you're reliable, but we will be touring so hopefully your job has vacation time.
We have tracks and video you can check out. We're all nice guys and we're looking for someone who really loves the music, is easy to get along with and will be in this for the long haul.
If you have any keyboard/organ experience that's a plus.

Vocalists Needed - W of DM - 1139674
01-18-12 - Des Moines, IA>Omaha, NE - So I am an experienced lead guitar player, and am currently in a band, but we play mostly country and this is not my genre of choice. While I have a great time with the band I am in, and it is great experience, I am now looking to start something that is more towards the direction I would like to go. I have played for about 15 years, and a friend of mine plays bass and has for a couple years now. We currently have several songs recorded as we have recording capabilities in house, but I built all drum tracks with a keyboard, I play all the guitar parts myself, and there is only one or two that I have written vocals for. Now, I do understand that dropping famous band names may imply that we are looking to be a cover band, but I assure you that is not the goal here. Though I do believe covers may be beneficial in the beginning as far as having enough material for an entire set, we do intend to be a completely original band. My inspirations for most of my playing career have been bands like Breaking Benjamin, Killswitch Engage, Times of Grace, All That Remains, Theory of a Deadman, etc. I really like the "lead rhythms" that these bands produce, and these bands portray the energy that I wish to accomplish with this project. Anyway, if any of this interests you, shoot me a line. I would be glad to send you some sound bytes of the songs we have been working on to help you decide whether or not you are interested.
A drummer is very crucial at this point. We do have a drum set, but it is not very good quality as neither of us are drummers. I just like to play them and got it for my own amusement. But we also need a rhythm/lead guitar player, and a good vocalist. Anyway, I suppose that's enough info for now. I would be glad to answer any questions you have. You can call or text me, John, at . Hope to hear from you, and if not, thanks -- Project Type: 1
