Hey! My name’s Billy and I play guitar and sing for a band called “Searcher” located in Austin, TX. We're currently writing our debut EP and hope to be touring full time by May. All of the members are from bands with years of live, recording, and small stints of touring experience. We currently need a bass player and a keyboard/synth/samples player. We REALLY want someone with a solid voice so we can have two lead singers instead of one. Guys and girls are welcome to try out. If you want to come practice with us or if you’d like to hear some rough demos of some of the songs we’re writing for our debut EP, email me and i'll send you some mp3's. Our influences include:

Thrice
As Cities Burn
Coldplay
Circa Survive
The Receiving End Of Sirens

The stuff we’re writing is sometimes stripped down, sometimes heavy, and sometimes weird, but always ambient. We’re trying to do something different with this project. If you’d like to check it out, email me.

None of those influences sound particularly ambient. Do you mean, the-guitars-will-have-lots-of-reverb, or do you also cite influences like Yndi Halda, Saxon Shore, Ef, that sort of thing?

i guess it depends what you consider ambient. you don't consider coldplay ambient? thrice's water and wind albums? many of the slower tracks on the new TREOS album? Yes, the guitars will have lots of delay and reverb, but there will be lots of keyboards and other things that should make the final product very atmospheric sounding.
