Someone that knows their scales and could do some fun improvising during instrumental sections would be cool. Someone creative that likes the dynamics of what an original band brings. Bands we like and could pick up on sounds of: Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Pink Floyd, White Stripes, Blind Melon, Guns and Roses, Pearl Jam, Black Keys, Phish, Grateful Dead, Rage against Machine, Sublime and everything in between.
We do a mix of covers and originals. Have about 2 albums worth of originals and around 1.5 hours of covers. Covers listed at the bottom. The money we make we just put into a band account to let it build up for merch, equipment, going to the studio for our originals etc. Some places we have played: H Street Festival, Clarendon Day, Iota, Jammin' Java, Clarendon Grill, Velvet Lounge, Chief Ikes, Tree House Lounge, Sollys and some others.
