SEEKING
Band to Join, Vocalist - Tenor, Lead Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Drums, Other Percussion, Vocalist - Alto, Steel guitar.ABOUT
Ideally - LOOKING FOR A 3 PIECE BAND- 2 x guitar/Vox and a cajon or percussion(toms etc) for fun gigs and pubs.
However can do a duo- really want a good/great guitarist to stretch my playing and be able to jam harder.
Just back from 9 years in china playing in acoustic duo and trio bands (the chairmen and the sun daze). Play older tunes for middle age punters. Play whatever they like and whatever the singers can handle.
I Just like to play.
Ideally would love to have a trio with a singer guitarist and a Cajon/percussionist. I have 2 PAs in transit and all my gear is in transit but have my Taylor mini and cole Clark here in oz for jamming. Northside is best but willl be living in margate at some point this year.
Money not an issue - very happy to do originals and and more interested in good gigs than the money. Can play a couple of gigs a week and happy to practice as needed by the band mates. As always looking for a crew that works well - its got to be fun and its got to challenge us alll. Let’s see if there is some chemistry……. Contact me on my email i guess - markkckelly@ try and sort out some practices and maybe gig by december ??

EQUIPMENT
Maton performer - a Resonator - cole Clark FL2- I play through a helicon VL3 Extreme and 2 channels 1 clean and 1 with effects Blending/out via volume pedal.
I have a cajon with onboard pick up and some toms with the gear to mic the percussion guy.
I was running the PA gear for my bands as we had to run our own gear. So have enough to run most small venues - say approx 50- 100 punters
or so. Its a small PA with F’back mics and stands etc, like a Bose L1/ JBL set up. And 16 channel Digital mixer iPad controlled.
