Machine Head To Hold Auditions For New Bassist

Last month, Machine Head parted ways with long-time bassist, Adam Duce. Today, the band has announced they will be holding online auditions for the position of bass. Full details, as well as a statement from the band can be viewed below. Machine Head will be spending the majority of their summer on the 2013 edition of the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival.

Machine Head will begin the process of searching for a temporary bassist replacement for this summer’s Mayhem Festival in the U.S. Interested in trying out? For a limited time the band will accept and review YouTube submissions that include the following:

1) Video: A standalone performance of the songs listed below, just yourself, singing and playing bass along to the the tracks off the albums. **Camera phone is fine as long as it’s stable**

2) A brief 1- to 2-minute statement about your musical experience; playing, touring experience, etc.

Please upload your videos to YouTube and e-mail a link (or links) to MHBassAuditions@gmail.com that includes the following songs:

1) This Is The End
2) Halo
3) Beautiful Mourning

Once the band has narrowed down potential candidates, they will hold tryouts in person at a to-be-determined location.
