KINETIC ELEMENT of Richmond VA cannot move forward without a prog rock bassist. Our links are at the end of this post.
After cancelling three important shows, we are still in the hunt for a bass guitarist to replace a very talented person who could not continue with us. We need a very melodic, near virtuoso type player who is familiar with the great progressive rock bassists and bands of the 1970s such as Chris Squire (Yes), Mike Rutherford (Genesis), Greg Lake (ELP), John Wetton (UK, King Crimson), John Lodge (Moody Blues), or the fusion guys like Jaco Pastorius (Weather Report) or Stanley Clarke (Return to Forever). We have been compared to modern bands Transatlantic, Spock's Beard, and Pentwater.
Our music is along the lines of 70s classic prog. You can hear us at

We released a CD this past September which we would like to support by performing at some of the prog gigs in North Carolina, northern Virginia, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New Jersey. Now we need to get you in here and get you caught up so we can resume trying to get on these shows.
Here are links to the reviews:

It appears we made a good product. We are known to many people in the prog world on the East Coast including the festival promoters. We have financial backing (limited but enthusiastic) and are negotiating with a radio/
PR person. If you have chops and love prog, heck, even if it's prog metal, and have online samples we can listen to, please reply.
