How big is your band?
 
We're a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers tribute band, and there's six of us - singer, keyboard player, two guitarists, bassist, and drummer.

My band has 5 members. Drummer, guitarist, singer, keyboard player and me. The lead singer is a very good bass player so I play guitar on a couple of songs.

I'm in a couple of trios, and the bigger group is six core members with some singers who come and go - drums, bass, guitar, DJ who plays turntables and samples, lead singer and trumpet.

My current band is a trio. My previous band had a variable cast. Our biggest lineup was three guitars, steel guitar, harmonica, drums, percussion, saxophone, and trumpet. Sometimes, the steel and trumpet players wouldn't show up. Regardless, that was a really fun band. The set list was all over the map : swing, jazz, funk, blues, rock, and tex-mex. Radar Love was great when the brass guys were there.

all three of my current line ups are power trio's..lol

Both my (originals) groups are power trios. Though one of them, we do use a fair amount of backing tracks for synth and whatnot--a bunch of the tunes would really need 5 or so people to be able to be played "fully live".

Guitar, bass, keys, drums. We play classic rock and having a keyboard player really opens up a lot of song options.

Jhengsman 03-10-2013 08:08 AM
