Revised in response to misunderstanding:

Musicians Wanted.

We are setting out to create a fun, playful, professional band. To do this, we are interviewing potential band members to make sure everyone is a good fit. Here is what we are looking for:

Team-Oriented: Communicates actively and selflessly, works diligently and independently, in tune with needs of fellow band members, willing to work with the business side of the band.

Leadership Skills: Open to diverse musical styles, owns what they offer to the band, serves the interests of the team and mission of the band.

Money-Friendly: Reliable, Financially Viable, has goal of making a living from playing music. (Marketing experience an asset.)

Collaborative: Jams well at low volumes, works to perfect craft while playing on despite mistakes, treats the band as a partnership which includes the non-musicians affecting the outcomes of the band.

Interpersonal Skills: Openly communicates with other band members and the audience, receptive to diverse musical ideas and perspectives, experience promoting musical events.

Ethical: Values legitimacy in personal and business dealings, and being clear-minded while playing music. Understands the business aspects of the band are necessary and allow the musicians greater freedom to explore their craft.

Musical Orientation: "Flexible" and "gig-getting". Music and lyrics that reflect happy roots, enjoyable moments, and optimistic outlooks. Music that gets people to spend money to see the band, buy the recordings, play them for others, and buy the merchandise.

If you share these attitudes, we would like to meet you before the audition. A group audition, by invitation, will be held in August, 2010 to form the band.

Those who are interested please email me directly: [email protected]

Looking forward to meeting you in person!
