Bass player wanted for folk rock/americana band

Currently on the lookout for a new bass player for an existing singer/songwriter led project/band embarking on a new EP release and gigs. Lots of gigs played last few years including Merge Festival and London Folk and Roots Festival. The band is called House Above The Sun and you can hear our first album 'five hours north' on spotify and bandcamp (these days we mostly play tracks 1, 3, 4 and 8 from that record). Lots of new songs since then including a new EP being mixed now, which is a little more acoustic driven and featuring lap steel.

Current line-up is male and female vocals, guitar, drums and lap steel/dobro.

Usually rehearse weekly in Earlsfield.

Influences are broad but mostly stem from 60s/70s American folk, blues and country singer-songwriters, classic guitar rock/pop and more contemporary alt-country and indie. Some examples are Bob Dylan, Rolling Stones, Gram Parsons, Townes Van Zandt, Lucinda Williams, The Smiths, REM, Wilco,The Beatles, The Kinks, The Doors, Uncle Tupelo, Son Volt, Gillian Welch, Bright Eyes, Hank Williams, Byrds, Flying Burritos Bros, Emmylou Harris, Neil Young, Big Star, Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Springsteen, The Band, Kurt Vile, War on Drugs, Nirvana, Sharon Van Etten.

The ideal person for us:
-shared love for rootsy/americana influences
-reliable, organised, positive attitude
-Lots of live experience, great timing, ability to learn songs by ear and feel out the groove of the song and what the song needs (including keeping things simple when needed). Ideally a finger style player.
-someone who genuinely likes the songs and has enough time and drive for music to do regular rehearsals (probably 3-4 per month initially) and regular gigs (hopefully including gigs outside London gigs in future)
-ideally similar age (early thirties)

If this sounds of interest to you please get in touch and we'll send you more info. Please give info about your live and/or recording experience, your biggest musical influences,age and location. Please provide at least one link to your playing (even if its just a simple phone recording of you playing).

Thanks!
