Southport based Earth Rustlers are seeking a competent and committed cellist or upright bass player (electric bass players will also be considered) who can sing backing vocals. We have a raft of exciting new material to work on a second album later in the year and will be planning to play a number of live performances during 2017.

Rehearsals are (usually) on a Thursday evening near Churchtown Southport.

We are a folksy bluesy sort of band focused on original material playing stuff along the lines of Bob Dylan, Jackson Frank, Tom Rush, Neil Young, Si & Garf, John Renbourn, Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers, Shakey Graves, Iron and Wine, Big Bill Broonzy, Mississippi John Hurt, Mississippi Fred McDowell.

We are looking for someone aged between 16 and 80, male or female - although some backing vocals will be in the higher range. Ability to write your own parts to accompany songs would be a bonus but we are not seeking a collaborative songwriter. Sense of humour a bonus; clowning skills not required.

Interested? Please email earthrustlers@gmail.com and introduce yourself and we'll get in touch : )
