Dublin, Guitarist Needed

    Hi all,
    We are looking for an experienced guitarist to take the place of a member who left. We are a pop-rock/indie band along the lines of The Stone Roses, ELO, OCS and the general Brit Pop era. We need someone who can be fully committed to the band and give it their all.

    Age isnt a major thing but somewhere between 20-30 would be ideal. Gender doesnt matter either of course.

    Basically we want someone who loves to play music, loves to have a laugh, can give a bit of attitude onstage (altho not too Liam Gallagher-esque) but above all wants to make a career in music. Backing vocals would be a plus also but not that important. If you enjoy a beer before/during/after the gig, thats cool also. Were no angels on that front! So if you want to be in a band that have a huge amount of fun but with big commitment to making it as far as possible, throw me a PM or reply here. You can hear some of our stuff through the links in my signature also.


    PS. This isnt a "play what the other guy used to play" thing. You will have as much creative input as the rest of us. We are currently working on a good few new songs also, so you would be part of the writing process for those.

    How's it goin, just wondering what the name of the band is and where you're based? Have yis any demo's up anywhere?

    I'm a Guitarist/Vocalist/Songwriter, heavily influenced by The Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Doors, Who, Oasis/Beady Eye, OCS, Weller, Stone Roses, Ian Brown, Kula Shaker, Bluetones, The Coral, Charlatans, Kasabian, Supergrass etc.

    I play rhythm and some lead guitar, although I prob wouldn't be an out and out lead guitarist. Have written a lot of tunes in the style of the above and have been gigging for the last 10 years. I've been a frontman in a couple of bands but am happy singing backing vocals/harmonies.

    Hiya Beady Eye. Liking those influences! Didnt want to list too many in the OP but most of what you listed is right up our street. The bands name is Dextra. We are based in Poppintree and Rathfarnham and usually practice either in our singer and drummers place in Poppintree or in the Axis Rehersal rooms in Ballymun. The best place to hear our stuff would be HERE. Where are you based yourself by the way and what age are you?
