Folk/Celtic Band In Houston

We are a Folk band that plays all kinds of Celtic and traditional music from all sorts of cultures. We put our own unique twist on everything. In addition, we write songs so we do our own originals, and we also do a few select covers. We need someone with a natural knack for grabbing harmony (leads available if you like but not required), preferably tenor or low alto, and at least rhythm guitar (or other strings) to make us complete. We usually gig twice a quarter, sometimes more but we don't kill ourselves gigging. And we keep our gigs in and very close to Houston. Mostly we get paid but occasionally play for tips. We are day people and practice every couple of weeks so best if you are a retiree like us or at least have a very flexible schedule. Prefer someone with maturity and an understanding of Celtic traditions. We are liberal leaning and our goal is to keep it fun. So like-minded individual preferred.
