Fiddle player wanted for a ‘Celtic Punk’ band (part of the Dropkick Murphys / Flogging Molly scene) :
We fuse the swirl of Traditional Irish music with the electric energy of Punk Rock & kinda sound like The Pogues being backed by The Clash – which definitely gets ’em going & can be a total blast!
We need someone who’s a capable, dynamic player, with a good ear & is a sympathetic accompanist. + confidence, a wee bit of flair & a some stage presence would be handy! Backing vocals would deffo be a bonus too!
And an Irish background would be preferable, but it’s not compulsory. A knowledge of, & the ability to play, Traditional Irish music would be a really good idea though. And a familiarity with Irish humour would be handy enough.
Ability, commitment, a bit of flexibility time-wise, & passport are essential (we’re not the biggest band in the world, but we’ve got about a good bit, have still managed to do so recently, & intend to do more of the same).
And no time-wasters, bread-heads, blaggers, bollixes, jobbing musos or ego issues (fragile or otherwise) – we need someone we can work with, not against – a solid team player that can get along with everyone: someone who gets what we do, is into it, can get the gigs done in a right & proper manner & have the craic afterwards. 😉
So thanks very much indeed for your time & consideration! & good luck!
