Don has recently moved to Delaware. We have split on good terms and he may still play a few shows with us until we find a replacement.
We are an established band. We have our connections for bookings across the Lehigh Valley, Philly, and Scranton area. Being able to help book a show is a bonus but not necessary. I (Mike) also am the webmaster for the ALL the band's websites. I run them all and keep them all as updated as I possible can. Once you join you will also take control of the band's Facebook Page.
We are completely committed to this band!
Looking for musicians 21+. We have 3+ albums worth of material. And just because you're coming into an established band, we consider you a whole part of the band and will never make u feel any lesser. Any input is always accepted here!!!
Drummer must be able to do double bass. The drumming isn't crazy fast, in your face metal beats, but some of our songs just sound so much better with double beats in parts.
Must have reliable transportation. Practice 1 day a week. I always book shows around work schedules if need be. But if we can manage to find out about shows in advance, possible switching up work schedules for shows. We try to play out at least 1-2 times per month!!!
And drummer having back-up vocal abilities is necessary!!!
We currently have a practice space we pay by the hour, but if you know somewhere we can practice cheaper or for free, that would be a bonus as well.
We enjoy playing shows and being on stage and just writing music with a bunch of good friends. We take the band seriously but also love having fun with it, or we don't feel it's worth even doing. We just want to get a drummer again and get back up on that stage and play live.
