ABOUT

HEY EVERYONE

My band Penalty (from Frankston Vic) is looking for a new lead guitarist
Penalty is a Punk/Hard rock/ Experimental band, we take influence from bands like Sonic Youth, Led zeppelin, Dead Kennedys and David Bowie. We know that a lot of the musicians in Frankston play metal music, nothing against metal of course but we just want to reiterate that we’re a punk band not a metal band

We’re based in Frankston but tend to do gigs all around Melbourne. At the moment we’re getting gigs quite consistently around 1-2 a week which also means doing about 2 practices a week on average so we’re looking for someone who is very committed and has a schedule that is open enough for this or can adapt to this (the last thing we want to do is be turning down good opportunities.)
We’re also looking for someone who is committed to helping run our social media as it’s mainly how we get new opportunities, we want this to be a job that is evenly divided between everyone (if this is something you haven’t done before that is completely ok we’re happy to share the knowledge we have)

We love collaborating on writing new music and do it as often as we can

Everyone in our band is aged 18-19 so we’re looking for someone similar in age, anywhere between 18-22 is perfect

We’re all very friendly people and while we’re very committed to making music and being successful we want to have fun while doing so

We also would prefer a female guitarist as I’m the only girl at the moment and it gets a bit lonely but of course all genders are welcome

if you haven’t been in a band before that’s no reason to not give it go we’d still be more than happy to have you

Also if you’d like to hear what we’ve done so far or what we have coming up you can check out our ig penalty.band!!

Thank you!
