Bass player + keys player needed!

Hello All!
I hope everyone has had an enjoyable weekend and are all ready for this new week.

I’m quite new to this forum, even if having used the studios for the past year or so. But, anyways…

My band Divided Compass is currently looking for a permanent keys player to help expand our sound during live performances.
A lot of our stuff is currently keys/synth based and unfortunately just having a Guitarist, Bassist and Drummer limits how immersive we wish our shows to be, so are looking for someone who can take on that role and be committed to it.

We are also looking for a new bassist! Our current one (also my sister) has been taking part in the band as key Bassist. However, she was only meant to be in the band temporarily whilst we looked for someone who can take on the role permanently. It has come to a point where we are unable to keep her on as a bassist as she’s looking to get into sports (her main interest) and with the many tournaments she participates in, its hard to get into a frequent and routined based rehearsal/performance pattern. With this in mind we’re looking to hire a permanent Bass Player who is able to take her place.
