Interested in putting together an American country band?

máthair · 29-04-2013 4:23pm #1

Hi there,
I'm a singer & cellist and I'd love to get together with like-minded people to put together a band that does primarily American country-rock music.

Influences would be Mary Chapin Carpenter, Gretchen Wilson, Hank Williams, The Judds, Patsy Cline and many more.

Ideally the band would comprise of a fiddler, pianist, drummer, bassist and guitarist and me on cello.

We would also need a male singer.

If this sounds like your thing, let me know. I'm based in Meath/Dublin, so having a car to get to rehearsals would be an advantage.

Looking forward to hearing from y'all

We are, Im a blues rock pianist with a cool funk rock drummer and an excellent bass player. We are writing songs similar to The band Perry and are looking for a guitarist and a fiddle player....me thinks you are in the wrong side of the country!!

Lol - We're an American Country/Roots band too, looking for a fiddle player...only we're in Galway. Maybe we should all get together and form a Country Supergroup!

I tried to edit the original post to say that I'm based near Dublin; in Meath. So if anyone else is interested, please do get in touch.

A piano player is next on the list :-)
