New Wedding Band Westmeath Seeks Musicians

    Do you have what it takes to be in Irelands best Wedding Function Band?
    Do you have a wide variety of styles, and are proficient with your instrument?
    Do you have dedication and drive?


    If you answered YES to all of the above, then Irelands best wedding band are looking for you!!!

    After 10 years experience of working on the wedding entertainment scene, I have the experience, and drive to put together Irelands premier
    Function band that will set the bar very high for the quality that brides and grooms should expect of their entertainment providers.

    Having just purchased a 10K rig, and as a proficient vocalist and guitarist, I am looking for experts in their field to join me in this new venture

    Currently i am seeking a Drummer, Bassist, Guitarist, Keyboardist and Female vocalist, all with harmonies, who can deliver the goods on the night, every night

    I want to guarantee our clients a high quality sound and a professional band, and value for money.

    Instruments and amplification must be of high quality, and the set list (To be finalised) will consist of hits from the 60´s, right up to todays chart hits.
    This includes wedding standards, Waltz, country etc, right up to modern dance & pop.

    I have worked very close with hotels over the past few years and have no problem organising wedding fairs, parties,
    and inclusion on more than 400 hotel entertainment lists. so I am expecting to spend a considerable amount of time on the road with the right members.

    Dedication is paramount for this project, and the ability to gel both on stage, and off, is of the utmost importance.

    I am hoping that with the right members, rehearsal time will be minimal, before we get on the road and start making a name for ourselves.

    Applicants will be auditioned with a professional band, and the final members will go through a session together to see how interaction between the members work.

    This will be a unique opportunity for anyone who can see it through to fruition, and will pay dividends to the successful few.

    I will look forward to hearing from those interested, and look forward to working with you.

    Hello there,

    Im a saxophonist looking for a regular gig. I also play rhythm guitar and sing. I know you didnt include that in your want list but if you feel like you might want to go down that route let me know. I have played with bands in your area for the last few years like The Aftermath, Noel O'Farrell, Justin Ryan, The Smooth Brothers and lakeland swing.

    I lecture in music and engineering and Im the musical director of Harper Lane big band (In the set up stages). I have been doing session work for the last while but would like a steadier gig.

    Cheers,

    D
