Do you like South-American music? Do you like the genres salsa, merengue, bachata, cumbia, vallenato, tango and others? Do you like thinking outside the box? Do you play a musical instrument? If so than I am looking for various musicians to start a musical ensemble that would play original as well as cover songs from South-America. I am looking for the following: percussion and drums, accordionist (preferable diatonic or pentatonic), bassist, keyboard player, trumpet (2), saxofon (2), trombone (2), background vocals, lead vocals, guitarist, and anything else that might suite the genres. My name is Tomas Dan and I am guitarist/singer/songwriter and have been fascinated with South-American music since I first heard it. I have played in a few bands but not found what I wanted so now I decided to see if I could start a new band. If you have read until here and are interested please check out these songs below as an example of what I would like to play:
