View Full Version : Female singer for small acoustic band wanted
2437_SNT 28-09-2007, 08:44 Me and a couple of mates are getting a new music project up and running and we are currently a guitarist/bassist and drummer. Really keen to find a female singer. Age not an issue but we are all early 30's. We are playing original acoustic songs but very much like Athlete/Snow Patrol/Joss Stone etc. We practice at Whirlow in a band members house so no issue with cost of rehearsals and the practice times can be flexible and will be quite laid back. Keen to gig in the future and all current members have experience of live perfomances.
Can send a CD of songs we will be playing for a flavour of what we are about.
Thanks for reading!!

I'm interested. I don't have anything put down that i could send though! I'll pm my number

Did you find a vocalist yet? only just found this post and I sing and have been looking for somewhere to sing again recently. I have a very jazz/ soprano type voice, think Portishead etc I don't do blues or Nina Simone very well however (or Otis Redding as I was asked to do at one audition once)!!
Bit out of practice, but keen to get it warmed up and used again- let me know if you are still looking!!
alice8cake 19-10-2007, 10:12 Hi i would be really interested in this.I'm involved in a few things musically at the moment but this is more up my street in terms of style!
I'm classically trained, and can sing anything from Blondie to Aretha franklin.I love emiliana torini,vanessa carlton and eva cassidy and would love to start singing some stuff like this.
Feel free to send me a PM

Hi, Have you found anyone for your group yet? I'm definitely interested, and live near Fulwood :)
2437_SNT 21-10-2007, 13:03 Hi guys,
Thanks for the interest, we have a vocalist at the moment however its early days and should things not go to plan then we will recontact those who are interested!
2437_SNT 01-02-2008, 06:26 Hi, I've resurected this thread as we are now in need of a talented singer songwriter to compliment our band. It is a laid back acoustic setup with some original songs already written and ready to perform. We are after commitment as much as talent as we want to take this as far as possible. We will be practicing once a week in Whirlow(no charge for rehersal space), gigging as and when we can but ultimately we will be looking at recording and releasing some of our material. Our last singer couldn't really give the commitment due to exams and Uni etc. Experience not necesarily important, though confidence, talent and a good personality are!
If you can help out we'd be delighted to hear from you!
Thanks
Aid.
KellBells 05-02-2008, 11:35 Hello there! I'm quite interested in your post :D I sing blues/folk/jazz and anything really. I'm very much in love with acoustic music like Joni Mitchell etc...I've sang on stage before in college and sang as a duet in Ireland but we didn't do any live performances, I also write poetry but not really had a bash at songwriting! Due to my cigarette smoking, My voice can sound a bit husky but I also sing like an angel hehe ;) I live just outside Sheffield but can get in easy :) I haven't really got anything to send you but i'm sure I could whip something up!
Hey,
I write music, play acoustic guitar and sing. I've got quite a low ranged voice. I've been writing music for about 10 years and finally realized it was time to let the world see me in action. Haven't got anything recorded however if you want to meet up I can play you something. I live in the centre of Sheffield. If this sounds interesting, give me a call on 07766 685219.
Look forward to speaking to you.
Jo
2437_SNT 13-03-2008, 11:46 Hi all, resurrected this post again - due to unforseen circumstances our singer has had to step down. Anyone still interested please let me know!
Thanks
Hi, i'm not a girl but i play guitar and write my own songs, got plenty of my own material and wouldn't mind having a go at fronting a band if your interested. I also know a half decent lead guitarist. Let me know either way.
Cheers
KellBells 21-03-2008, 12:54 Hi, i'm still interested, I think I sent a message to you there the other day!
Kelly
Hi,

im a very hard worker, i like long walks and swimming, i also enjoy backgammon and tiddlywinks!!! haha just kidding
so if you still have an opening, drop me an email =) a_girl_named_danii@hotmail.co.uk

Cheers.
hey there,
I posted a reply the one before yours
so what happened to the old singer?
Danii
hey it says you've exceeded your message space lol
I've never tried to write songs, so I'm not sure if I can or not.
I can sing though.
Not sure if this is good enough
Danii
2437_SNT 16-06-2008, 15:20 I've sent you an email to your email address you put in a previous post. Cheers.
Hi Aid
Not sure if you're fixed up yet but I like the sound of your band
2437_SNT 29-07-2008, 08:50 Resurected again and in need of a reliable committed female frontperson asap.. we are now a gig ready backing band with drums and looking to record and play live soon.
Any interest please drop me a line.
Thanks!
tempo-rubato 30-07-2008, 15:18 Hi! I'm very interested, have a fair amount of experience singing and playing live. I'm not exactly sure how to get in contact with you, as i've just signed up and can't see any way of messaging you my number without posting it on here! Post a message back on here and that would be great. Cheers
