ATTENTION CLEVELAND, OHIO AREA AND DETROIT, MICHIGAN AREA (PROFESSIONAL) TRUMPET PLAYERS:
Sonora Tropicana (a Latin Band on tour) needed a 2nd trumpet player for a 10pm set in Cleveland last night (11/22/17) and as far as I know they still need a player for the 10pm set in Detroit, Michigan tonight (11/23/17). Each night will most likely be a single one-hour set, but it is possible that it might get broken into two shorter (40 minute) sets. The pay is $200 per night. Top level sight reading ability with experience with Latin Music and a range up to a solid D above High C is required. If interested, send me a message through the Trumpet Herald system with your contact information and I'll put you in touch with the band.

Note that it does not have to be the same player for both gigs (but it can be if you don't mind the drive). |

No, it's a live concert, not just a recording session. You'll have to use Skype. |

Okay, Wednesday night has come and gone and apparently there were no qualified trumpet players in Cleveland that wanted to make $200 in one hour last night (or more likely, they didn't happen to see the notice). I'm not sure if the band was able to find a local themselves (haven't talked to them since yesterday afternoon).
As far as I know, the set in Detroit tonight still needs to be covered. I know it's Thanksgiving, but I can't imagine a better way to work off that Turkey Dinner than playing a hot Latin set and getting paid $200 to do it. Any takers?
Cheers,
John |

UPDATE: Both dates were/are covered. The band found a Cleveland area trumpet player who played the set last night and will play the set tonight. Then I play the sets in Elkhart and Indianapolis, Indiana; Hickory Hills, Illinois (just a few miles from my home!), and then Lafayette, Indiana through the rest of the weekend. |
