Seeking Musicians to back solo projectSinger Songwriter (Minneapolis)

Hello, I'm a 27 year old singer songwriter (guitarist & audio production specialist) from Minneapolis. I am seeking musicians that would be interested in playing my songs in a band, and under my name.

Seeking (but not limited to):

Drums-(Ideally I envision both acoustic and electronic drums, but we can talk about that later so don't sweat it if you don't have both) A drummer who can be simple or complex when it's right in the song. Someone who understands song composition, can play solid and has great timing (can play to a click).

Bass- A bass player that can master the low end; someone who can throw down interesting, simple, and effective bass lines to the songs and makes them fit, but also someone who can go outside that box at any given time and lay down some righteous grooves. Someone who can play with the kick.

Lead Guitar- Someone who knows there way around a fret board. Can make interesting chord shapes to compliment the rhythms chords. Also, I love ambiance, so someone that can throw down a wall of lead sounds to fit the songs is ideal for me (I hate to sound cliche here but, give me some of that reverb/delay swimmy stuff!)

Piano/Keys- This is hard enough to find and I'm okay with simple so hit me up. I can mainly see someone who can lay down basic piano or provide some pad sounds to help move the songs along. I could see more intricate for jammy live situations.

Singing abilities a huge plus! I love having multiple harmonies/back up vocalists.

Additionally, my primary position in the band would be lead vocals and rhythm guitar.

Examples of artists influencing this project:

Coldplay
Lewis Watson
James Morrison
Ben Rector
Jeff Buckley


You are:
Male or Female
Ages 18-30
Passionate
Ambitious
Dedicated
Talented
A team player
Punctual
Interested in helping promote the band (shows, social media, photography, graphic design, etc. any way possible)
Able to send me examples of your work/talent. Please send videos and links.

I should mention that I am in the beginning stages of writing and recording my first solo EP so I don't have any originals to show you that we might be playing. However I will include a link to the last band I was in wherein which I wrote, sang, played guitar, and recorded: https://soundcloud.com/the-reckless-band

*Note; my style has been slightly changing so if you listen to the above link I'd recommend "Walls of Steel." This may be the closest to the more radio friendly, singer songwriter stuff. Still has the catchy-esk chorus and ambiance that I enjoy.

Here is my youtube with some covers: https://www.youtube.com/user/davidsandersfeld/featured
