Vancouver-based prog/funk group (two guitarists & drummer) looking for a solid bassist. We are looking for an individual who is personable, creative, adaptive, reliable, and has decent chops. Humor is an asset too! A bit about us:
-we're all seasoned musicians who have performed with different bands in the past and have plenty of stage experience, professional gear, and professional attitude
-we practice at a rental studio downtown and maintain a flexible schedule
-we like to incorporate odd-time signatures, polyrhythmic ideas, tempo changes, key changes, dynamics, and other fun ideas into our playing
-we all have day jobs and treat music as a professional hobby; we're anti-drugs.
-we are writing original music with the intention of performing in the near future
