  • Singer/Guitarist looking to start or join a project. Male, early thirties with lots of experience (touring, recording etc...) I would like to get involved with creative and ambitious musicians, who want to have fun creating music, but with some goals. I'm initially looking for drums and bass (vocals are a big asset), but would also like to hear from others as well (guitars, keys...whatever). The more the merrier, as long as it's musical, melodic and brings out the best of the song. I would like it to be mostly original music, but some unique covers are always good too. My tastes and influences are pretty diverse, but somewhere in the rhealm of Rock/Alternative/Pop (with elements of others - funk, folk, soul, punk). Once finding the right people, I would like to have a regular rehearsal/jam with the goal of getting out and being heard. Not really looking for cover or hobby bands. Hope to hear from you:

Since we would only be 1 bass player, 1 guitarist, and 1drummer, we would like to find people with abilities to hear different arrangement to accommodate songs that originally has lots different layers of other instruments that we won’t have.

Here is an idea of the song list Hero,Foo Fighters---Little Sister,Queen Of The Stone Age---Politics, Colplay---Slide,Goo Goo Dolls---Shine,Collective Soul-----Drive,Incubus----System Of The Down,Aerials---If You Could Only See,Tonic---Mr. Brightside,The killer---Paralizer,Finger Eleven--- Lazy Eye,Silversun Pickup---Hysteria,The Muse---Etc etc Hope to hear from you!

I'm pretty old school and looking for like-minded vocals, bass and drums. Into good ol' rock n' roll like Bad Company, Gov't Mule, ZZ Top, Storyville, Hendrix, etc. as well as Motown and funk. I love the trio format (or 4 piece). No head cases or drama queens please. I want to have some fun with this. Played the same old tired bar stuff a dozen years ago and got fed up of it. Now I'd love to play something good for a change. Drop me a line if interested. Serious inquiries only.
