We might not sound like these bands, but these bands are the general vibe:

The Breeders, early b-52s, Mudhoney, Devo, Kleenex, US Maple, Unrest, Osees, Pavement, The Spits, APTBS, Black Lips, Protomartyr, Lower Dens, Yves Tumor, Cindy Lee, Parking, Forty Feet Tall, Big Boys, Guiding Light, Being Dead, 70s punk, no wave, slacker rock/Flying Nun, 90s stuff, blah blah blah.

You:

• should be into some of those things
• are serious about music. Let's say... more than a hobby?
• have your life together. You're reliable and communicate.
• are a good guitar player. You know your instrument, but like making lo-fi, simple music.
• can learn songs fast. You have the time and the commitment.
• can sing/yelp. (Not required though.)

We:

• are older. Late 30s-40s. 1 gay guy, 2 straight, with friendly, artsy/skate/punk backgrounds.
• practice once a week, in south Austin.
• are focused on playing out, having a fun live show. Eventually, we'll record something proper... maybe.

Note:

• Not a hired gun situation. We want someone who wants to play with us. We have baked songs you'll have to learn, but hopefully you have ideas/songs for us to learn too.
• This isn't a shredder role. Our sound isn't heavy, metal, thrashy, bluesy or solo-y. If your stoke is virtuoso playing, we're prob not it.
• We're not trying to "make it." Unless by making it, you mean playing shows in town.

Here's our dumb little video where you can hear where we're headed.

Women and gay/queer folks strongly, strongly encouraged to reach out.
