AUGHISKY is a Bristol-based alternative folk act who will be playing in a festival of new bands, the 1st round being on the 18th of January 2009. This is an international 'battle of the bands' starting in London (for UK based acts, with semi-finals/finals at Dingwalls and The Forum), the international summer finals in Germany in front of an audience of 40,000 people, including a three week album recording session at Malmo in Sweden plus support tour in the US for the outright winner.
Aughisky is a unique act that blends various musical styles and catchy songs with spoken word (poems and stories). We are getting gigs on a local basis, and have our next slot booked for Friday the 14th of November. Due to the sad departure of our current fiddler, we urgently need a committed and ambitious fiddler/violin player to join the group. You will need a pick up for your violin (fitted or detachable) and have the ability to be flexible musically and to improvise. Some familiarity with both folk and alternative/punk approaches are preferred, and an interest in bow/strings musicians such as John Cale, although not essential, would be an added bonus.
