I’m putting together an early Rhythm and Blues/Jump Blues project. I’m looking for several pieces to complete this project. It’s going to be a very vintage/authentic sound and style. Right now the main things we’re looking for are:

Vocals
Horns (Trombone and Trumpet… we have a Sax player on board already)
Piano

The current instruments we have are drums, tenor sax, upright bass and guitar. There is a possibility we’ll add another sax if one comes along.

I’m looking to keep the look and sound as authentic as possible so it is possible you may have to wear a suit on stage.

If you’re not sure what early R&B/ Jump blues sounds like, please check out the youtube links below. This will be the main sound I am looking to do. If you’re interested, or have questions, please feel free to contact me. Age, race and gender are not a factor. The current members are in their late 20’s to early 30’s.

Thanks
