*****BAND SEEKS Keyboardist for a FUN UNIQUE BAND*****
by Anthony
(Islip Terrace. LI, NY)
I am looking for serious musicians for a fun and Unique Act.
This has been a project of mine stored away for quite some years now and just never found the right opportunity until now to have this wonderful idea kick off!!!!
I am seeking a Keyboardist Vocals is a + You’ll need to produce sounds such as the Hammond Organ, Horns, Strings, Synthesizer and anything else. We will be re-creating songs from acts such as, the Young Rascals, The Beatles, The Grass Roots, Chicago and much, much, much more!!!!
You must be able to learn songs as played by original artist… Also very important, I am looking for musicians that have a great sense of humor and like to laugh!!!
(The primary theme of this band is 60’s and 70’s music with a unique twist.)
This act will be like nothing you’ve ever seen before in the tri-state area. We will be playing the Classics and One Hit Wonder songs that you don't hear bands even ATTEMPT to play. When you contact me, I will go into more details of what exactly I am looking to accomplish so we can all be on the same page.
I am very excited about this project and need you to be also. I will provide all the songs we would need to learn.
Personally, I am not looking to put together a large band. I believe we can accomplish this without a horn section with the right keyboardist. I’ve seen acts like Beatlemania, Elton John and Billy Joel cover bands all without a horn or string section.
About me…my name is Anthony …I am a 46 years old drummer with some backing vocals. I have played all over Long Island doing the bars and wedding scene and now its time for me to do what I always wanted to accomplish. I have a large address book of bars and clubs on LI and when mentioned to some about the idea of this concept band they were very excited. My intention is to target the 40 and over crowd as well as the younger generation who will enjoy every bit of this fun and classic music.
My goal will be getting a website, mailing list and promo kit ASAP not to mention booking us at bars, clubs, parties, festivals and special/corporate events.
If you have any links to websites that can show me some of your work, please include them.

Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Anthony
