    Hi there,
    I'm a singer & cellist and I'd love to get together with like-minded people to put together a band that does primarily American country-rock music.

    Influences would be Mary Chapin Carpenter, Gretchen Wilson, Hank Williams, The Judds, Patsy Cline and many more.

    Ideally the band would comprise of a fiddler, pianist, drummer, bassist and guitarist and me on cello.

    We would also need a male singer.

    If this sounds like your thing, let me know. I'm based in Meath/Dublin, so having a car to get to rehearsals would be an advantage.

    Looking forward to hearing from y'all :)

    Lol - We're an American Country/Roots band too, looking for a fiddle player...only we're in Galway. Maybe we should all get together and form a Country Supergroup! ;)

    I tried to edit the original post to say that I'm based near Dublin; in Meath. So if anyone else is interested, please do get in touch.

    A piano player is next on the list :-)
