Singer seeks covers band

    Singer seeks a band that can kick ass for some serious big tunes.

    I'm interested in doing stuff from the Doors, Velvet Underground, Beatles (post Rubber Soul), U2 (Pop and Zooropa era), Arcade Fire, Neil Young (Crazy Horse stuff), Stone Roses, the Cult, the Who, the Pixies, Pearl Jam, Modest Mouse, the Stones and loads more up to and including some electro type stuff like Groove Armada, Hot Chip and Underworld, so I'm looking for a band (or musicians) with a wide taste and good skillz.

    I'm not interested in your Kings of Leon / ACDC type of ten a penny covers bands...

    Based in the North East, but willing to travel as far as Dublin for the right set up.

    I'm in my 30's but age isn't an issue, being good is :)

    I've no mp3 samples, but I'm up for any jam / auditions.

    Reply on here or send me a PM

    Nice one - no other interest yet, so I'll give the thread a few more bumps, and we'll see what happens

    Not much interest in this - one last bumpage before it sinks without a trace...
    More bands I'd like to cover include:
    Primal Scream, Charlatans, Alabama 3, Happy Mondays etc etc

    Just one last bump - not sure if I made it clear - I'm looking for either a fully formed band, or individual musicians on this, so let us know if you're interested :)

    Not really seany - I don't really want to unless the tunes would be on a par with the stuff I mentioned above - they're some of my favourite bands, and I have never heard a covers band good enough to do justice to a set like that... I reckon it would be a big draw for people a bit to the left of the mainstream
