Hi guys,
I don't know if you're still looking for a singer but I spoke to Chester a couple of weeks ago and haven't heard back.
I have many fans who love to listen to me cover Pink, Katy Perry plus many other artists - usually at Karaoke as I have…

Ex Muchos Gracias lead guitarist and drummer are looking to form new covers band. Vocalist preferred female but not biased if a guy has the chops, just looking for a bit of extra sex appeal if that's not chauvinistic :)

- About me:
- Covers, classics to current charts. Just a few guy's out to have some fun and rock out. We're just here to party!
Matt Shield: Matt started work as a professional musician at 18 when he left Tasmania with a bunch of school friends to tour in a cover band. Covers soon made way for originals and that band soon found itself signed to Sony, releasing a few singles, and touring and recording in Los Angeles among other adventures. After having a break from music for family and children etc (as you do!), Matt picked up the guitar to write and perform a popular kid’s show before dusting off the bass for some awesome fun with Muchos Gracias.
Rod James (RJ): With influences like Gary Moore and Edward Van Halen, RJ served his apprenticeship on the Sydney pub circuit during the 80’s in various headlining outfits and in support of some touring international acts. After moving to the Gold Coast to raise a family and a 15 year hiatus from the guitar and music altogether, he has now revitalised his passion to rock out some finger acrobatics with Muchos Gracias. In a time where the guitar solo is often put to the bottom of the mix RJ encourages you to rethink what the role of the lead guitarist is all about!
Chet Howell: Chester spent 18 years playing and recording with 3 major groups in Sydney. He has also toured overseas and worked through some prominent agencies such as South Beat and Harbour. Chester has newly moved onto the drumming throne for Muchos Gracias. His first 7 years on the Gold Coast was spent as drummer for the band Chrome. Chester has been playing, teaching, and demonstrating the instrument for most of his life and it's this experience that keeps him in great bands with regular work.
