Well, it's with a heavy heart that I'm going to be stepping down from my position in this band in a few months time.

 

I've volunteered to put this up on here first, before advertising more widely if needed. The plan is to gauge who may 

be interested, and then I can forward their details on to our band leader Andy who will ultimately be deciding who 

to choose. 

I'm looking at leaving around April / May 2024, so that's when the new person would be taking over. Below is a brief 

'advert' I've put together to outline the type of applicants we are looking for.

Bassist with backing vocals wanted for 'The ELO Experience'.

 

I am retiring from this band in Spring 2024, so we are starting to look for my

replacement! The person will ideally be based in Yorkshire / Midlands area,

and have their own transport ( to get to meeting points for our band bus to

pick you up en route to gigs.)

 

We currently play upwards of 65 gigs a year, mainly in principal theatres

all over Great Britain along with some festivals. There may also be

the chance for European gigs in the future as well.

 

We need someone who can authentically play the original ELO bass parts

as well as provide solid backing vocals which form an important part of the

songs. You will need to be well presented with a strong 'team player' professional

attitude both on and off stage – this is something all our band and crew

have and it makes for a very happy group of people! Age-wise we are happy

for pretty much anyone to apply who can do the job – the current members

range from mid 20's to mid 60's.

 

It is possible for you to do other work around our band's commitments,

so long as it's understood that this job is ALWAYS your first call – we never

use deps.

 

If this sounds like you and you'd like to be considered then please drop me a

PM and I will forward it on to our band leader Andy. I'm also happy to answer any

questions via PM if there's anything more you need to know before applying.

Please send PMs to me by Wednesday 15th November - thank you.

 

If you're successful we would be looking at rehearsals in early 2024 with a view to

starting full time with the band in April / May 2024.

 

Cheers,

Pete.
