OPEN CALL: QUEER FOLK/ROCK PROJECT PUTTING TOGETHER A LIVE BAND!

Are you in the Santa Cruz, CA area? Do you want to play as part of the Gay Eldest Daughter band, and realize the full arrangements of these songs up on stage? I'm a folk singer, songwriter, and banjo player with a recently-released album looking to put together a live band to play gigs! Future opportunities to record together as well.

Guitarist: looking for electric guitar player with own equipment

Drummer: looking for drummer with own equipment

Keyboardist: looking for keyboardist with own equipment, ability to play VST instuments through keyboard plugged into laptop, and to play samples through some variety of MIDI controller

Bassist: 5-string bass preferred but not required

Being queer yourself is not a requirement, but being cool with the content of the lyrics is. If you don't know them already, please review some lyrics from the songs on the Gay Eldest Daughter Bandcamp page, particularly "want her (wanna be her)", "keeping you alive", and "orchi county".
