A Raleigh-based 17 piece big band needs a regular guitar player. The musician must have a good feel for the big band style, and understand swing and jazz. While the ability to read music is desired, as long as you can follow the chord notation on music and know the jazz chords, reading the notes isn't generally necessary.

This is mostly chord work, but there will be opportunities for improvised solos. Also you may be asked to play some quiet chord progressions, or "noodling" in between band songs to fill the space. If you are heavy into improvising jazz solos, there may be an opportunity for combo work as well.

The band is not making any money above expenses at this time, so there is no pay yet.
