ISO of Female Keyboard Player

2012 April 12
by Mike Vial

The GLE and I would like to wish Leah Taylor luck on her move to New York City that happens soon! Leah has been a great asset for our band, providing live keyboards and vocals for shows in 2011-2012. We will miss her, but as her song “My City” has proclaimed, Leah is ready for NYC!

So here I am, inquiring about a future keyboard player for the group! Here’s the listing for the position:

Mike Vial and the Great Lake Effect are seeking a female keyboard-player (21+) with excellent singing skills (harmony) for a handful of gigs in summer, and more in the fall and winter. The group’s sound is a mixture of folk/rock, a blend of Fleet Foxes, Damien Rice, and John Mayer. This is a position for an original band, not a cover group; however other opportunities for paying cover gigs (as a duo -guitar/keys/vocals) are a possibility if one is interested.

If interested, contact Mike Vial here:

Band practices are currently held in the Detroit area; Mike lives in Howell, which allows for separate rehearsals/sharing of rides to practice for interested musicians in Livingston county. While having one’s own keyboard is preferred, Mike Vial has a Nord Electro 2 that does piano, organ and Rhodes and is available for gigs if necessary.

Best examples of keyboard/harmony needs are these songs:
Harmony: Damn Fine Day
Piano/Harmony: Made a Mess
Fender Rhodes: Love and Be Proud
Hammond Organ: Driftwood
Piano: Change Your Tune
