Hey everyone!
We're looking for a lead guitarist, drummer and maybe a keyboardist aswell to join our band, Sanggano, here in Christchurch.
We're currently a vocalist, bassist and rhythm guitarist, all in our 20s and 30s. Our previous drummer and lead guitarist have recently moved on due to creative differences, mainly around the direction of the band and our desire to focus on writing original music rather than playing covers.
We're keen to find a few like minded musicians who enjoy collaborating, throwing ideas around and experimenting with different sounds and musical directions.
We're influenced by a pretty broad range of music, everything from alternative rock, indie, grunge, art rock, alternative metal, industrial and progressive rock to progressive pop, pop rock, post punk, new wave, shoegaze, jazz, soul and older R&B.
We're not particularly interested in sticking ourselves into one genre or trying to sound like another band. We all have different influences and I think there's something really interesting about bringing those together and seeing what comes out of it.
For us, the exciting part is creating original music together. Coming up with riffs, basslines, melodies, interesting rhythms, experimenting with guitar sounds, vocal ideas, keyboard parts and arrangements, and seeing where we can take things. We're not precious about having everything figured out beforehand and would rather have people bring their own ideas to the table.
We're looking for people who are creatively minded, open to trying different things, easygoing and reliable. Ideally, we'd like to get together regularly, develop a collection of original material and eventually get into recording, releasing music and playing some gigs.
You don't have to share all the same musical influences or have exactly the same ideas about music. In fact, I think having different perspectives is part of what makes a band interesting. It's more about finding people who get along, enjoy making music together and are on the same page creatively.
If you're interested, flick us a message with a bit about yourself, what you play, your musical influences and any recordings or videos you've got.
Keen to meet some new people and see what we can make together!
