We Are After A Guitarist!

Posted By : Super 8 Cynics | Comments : 8

Any guitarists fancy joining an awesome new-wave influenced originals band?

We are looking for a new guitarist to join our band. We have recently completed our debut album which was recorded to a release quality standard. Whoever joins will need to be capable of playing whats already been recorded. We are looking for someone with 100% commitment, professional attitude, great image, own transport and quality gear. A sense of humour is a must too. Planning to get back into the studio asap to record new material as well as regular gigs and hopefully a tour.

Backing vocals would be a plus. This is a real opportunity for a serious musician as some incredibly exciting things are on the horizon. Please have a listen to the tracks on our Soundcloud page (http://www.soundcloud.com/super-8-cynics). If you like what you hear and you can play what you hear, then please get in touch with us asap!

And if you needed some further encouragement, here's our promotional video for the post of guitarist:

Oi, you owe me a CRP ;-) On a serious point if you are looking for a specific age range perhaps you could edit the blog as well as delete the comments where you better define exactly what you are looking for - save anyone else asking the same question.

i think its quite clear Guy, We are certainly not ageist, that why we are willing to stretch the boundaries of what we are after, within reason. I'm not getting into a thread about that, enough real problems to deal with. :)

But I will say this, the music industry is very ageist.Thats just the way it is unfortunately.

aye, 3 quarters of my band also fall into another category the industry doesn't like, but we're a bit Millwall about it ;-)

yes, very. That's why ex King Crimson bassist Gordon Haskell had his first solo hit in his 50s and a band whose name I can't remember feature the father of one of the members on lead gutar - agin twice the average age of the rest of the band.

I was joking by the way - like your tracks and hope you find the person you are looking for ;)

Hi Don, I suspected you might be joking but I've seen how things like this can escalate into something ridiculous on blogs very quickly! So I thought it better to remove where the thread was heading. In the 70's things were different, there was no MTV. Age wasn't important then.

No worries - My band being old fogies avoid photos because some of the holiday venues we play think you have to be 18 - 24 to suit there audience.

Our excuse is that that is our combined mental age.
