JenJen Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hi there,I'm setting up an all Female band. We already have keys and one singer but we're looking for a front line of three or four singers and ofcourse lead guitar, bass and drummer - although I'm not holding my breath with finding a female drummer but you never know there may be one out there !!You wont be expected to pay out for any practice room costs as I am financing all costs myself. We're looking to use a wide range of styles, Lucy Sylvas, Robbie Williams, Aretha Franklin, Tom Jones, KT Tunstall, Christina Aguilera, James Blunt, Stevie Wonder, 80's and 90's classics - anything with good scope for excellent harmony and powerful vocals.Interested? We could take Aberdeen by storm !! I've already run a successfull band like this in the Midlands a few years ago but had to relocate here with work in 2003.So come on ......................... Females - lets show them what we can do.Fingers crossed !! :rockon: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tranzmute Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Just out of interest.may i ask why you are financing the whole thing yourself?mel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenJen Posted September 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Well for a starter I own two successful businesses, without trying to blow my own trumpet, so I can afford it. Also if I were to say when and where the practices where to be and for how long then I should be the one paying for it. In my mind, if I recruited someone for one of my businesses, then asking them to pay towards the cost of running it would be stupid - I'd never get anyone to work for me. Am I unusual then?

Yakamalaya Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Backing singers still needed?Hiya,I'm tryng to get into singing with people in Aberdeen. My main experience is singing around campfires and friends with guitars. I've got a bluesy voice and I like harmonies, I can read music and read people I'm playing with. This band you're trying to put together sounds right up my street. If there's still space for me give me an email on yakamalaya@hotmail.comBecka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
