I Need Your Help
Jun. 19th, 2006 10:16 amI like performing. I think I'm good. When I perform, people ask me when I'm performing next, if I have a CD out, etc. But I have a problem - I can't get gigs if I don't have an accompanist. I cannot afford to pay accompanists out of pocket. I need someone who likes playing, will like playing with me, and will work for an equal share of whatever we make. I'm sure once we gig more, we'll get better gigs and make more money, but I have to start somewhere.
Please help me find this accompanist. I work in a variety of styles, but probably the best person would be someone who has a swing guitar background or at least has a can-do attitude about figuring out songs by ear. My sets lately have been geared towards classic American songs of the early 20th century, but a typical gig back when I could play guitar for myself consisted of TV themes, Kurt Weill, cabaret, Americana, classic American songs from b'way and jazz, rock and my own twisted originals. I like playing and singing anything I think is good music.
Dear network, please help me.
