Guitarist / vocalist wanted for a bossa nova group based in Herts

Submitted by Paul H on Sat, 16/03/2013 - 20:06
in

We are a small group based in Hertfordshire/ North London who have been working on a bossa nova project for a few months, mostly for fun and the adventure. We have 2 female vocalists, one bass + backing vocals, one percussionist  + backing vocals, and a pandeiro player. Our playlist includes the famous bossa nova standards such as Berimbau, Carol Carolina, Mas Que Nada.

We have an opening for a lead guitarist and vocalist, ideally someone who knows the Brazilian style and can sing in Portuguese. Its a tall order. but if you love it, you love it!
