Guitarist/Singer or Singer/Guitarist
Or I can just do one or the other. I just moved here from OH and need a band. I was in plenty out there, so I have experience. I have been playing and singing (not necessarily together) for about 15 years. I prefer to do mostly originals. My influences are too many to name and I can talk more about that at another time, but my preferred style is either metal, hard rock, or blues/hippy/rock type stuff. Send me a message at:

Guitarist Looking For a Band, or To Start a Band
I've been playing off and on since I was a teenager, took it seriously while I was in the military and had formed a few bands while I was in Germany. I returned from Germany in 05/2005 and tried to keep playing, but got bored with it. Nearly 3 years later, I'm itching to get back in it, music is my passion. I have production and stage experience, and I've never been afraid of playing live, I think that's the best part. Yes, I'm rusty, but rest assured that I can get my groove back in no time. I'm very good with today's technology, especially with computers. I am self taught, never had any "formal" instruction. I'm extremely driven and motivated and a solid "ear."
I have owned and operated a few businesses and have a lot of contacts in many facets of "business," if it ever came to that, including graphics and website development, law, PR, and etc.
I don't have the typical "9-5" Monday thru Friday, in the office commitment. My job can be done anywhere and I've worked from home a lot. Benefits of not working for someone. I don't have a lot of equipment right now, but I have plenty of cash and credit to get what I want or need.
My influences encompasses a large variety of bands and genres. I like hard rock, metal, rock, classic rock, like Staind, Slipknot, Nickelback, Metallica, Pantera, Tap Root, 3 Doors Down, Boston, ZZ Top, list goes on and on.
Well, if you want to know more about me, just contact me. I'm a very easy going guy who just wants to rock out and have fun, and perhaps make some money too. Hit me up if you share the common goal, karl.jacobi "at" gmx "dot" com.

Mr.
Hello:
Thanks for checking out my ad. I'm looking to get back into music, as life events has taken me out since I separated from the Army 5 years ago and left a band we had formed while in Germany. I'm 30 years old, married with 3 kids, and we've been in Southbury for a little over 3 years now. I certainly don't have an ego, I'm a very easy person to get along with an absolute love for music. Been out of it for too long and I'm looking to get back in, just itching to play again. I'm not the greatest, that's for sure. I've been playing off and on for 5-6 years, but then I took about 4 years off. Everyone seems to think I have the talent for it and playing had always come easy to me.
I do have stage and production experience. Since day one in playing live performances, I've never had stage fright, I thrive on it.
I'm just looking for other musicians that share a common interest and want to have fun doing it, and perhaps make a little money too. I do have a day job.
My influences encompasses a large variety of bands and genres. I like hard rock, metal, rock, classic rock, like Staind, Slipknot, Nickelback, Metallica, Pantera, Tap Root, 3 Doors Down, Boston, ZZ Top, list goes on and on.
Anyways, I won't ramble any longer. Please hit me up if you're interested.
I look forward to hearing from you.

LOOKING FOR A PROFESSIONAL VOCALIST
Hello all Vocalists that this post applies to,
My name is Chris C., and I play in a recently formed yet very professional metal band. We are currently looking for a vocalist to fulfill the very demanding shoes of a professional band whose music and consistency of playing shows under a major or independent label is their means of a career and income. We have been together for over 4 months but have been playing in seperate bands for about 10+ years. I've been playing drums for about 15 yrs. and my guitarist, Alex M., has been playing guitar for about 10+. Our bassist, Mike G. has been playing for over 12+ yrs. Even though we don't know you, we want you all to understand right off the bat that this is our 'last opportunity' for us to make this a career. It's do or die, so please do your best to understand where we're coming from and if you can connect with any of it, then we may be in business. We want you who is reading this to feel very comfortable around us cuz that's just who we are. We wanna make sure that if you did join the band, then from the beginning, everything was cool and tight. We give everyone the benefit of the doubt and we'd really like to try u all out ASAP. This post is a little long, but if you are a professional, then wouldn't you want to know as much as possible about someone or something before you get involved? Of course, so read on. First, the backstory so you can get to know a little bit about us:
Eight years ago, I had started a band, a band that I thought would really never do anything big, but just play shows in the immediate area (New Haven County) for fun. Boy was I wrong. We pumped out two demo records in just under a year, and within one year of 'touring' (which would actually consist of about 2-3 shows a month - nothing for a pro band) we were getting noticed by some heavy hitters. Two years after starting the band (I was only 17 or 18) we were approached by a major label with a 1/4 of a million dollar signing bonus deal for two records and three full length tours (2-3 months each). Unfortunately to make a sad long story short, our guitarist bailed as he had other plans. So here I am 8 years and three bands later. I had just about given up on drums (i would def. consider myself semi-pro - if you think pro is just because your technically the greatest ever at your instrument you're dead wrong, being a professional means u do this for a career) and pretty much retired from being a musician.
I dedicated my life to film and television and that's what I've been doing for the past two years. Amidst my film and television networking, I happened to meet a really cool guy named Alex M. Not a rockstar's name but neither is 'Saul Hudson', but let me tell you def. a rockstar guitar player. I worked with him on a film project and got close, and he started talking about playing music as he had the same predicament that I had (except for the whole major label thing). I said, 'I don't know man, I've been in retirement for almost 2 yrs. now and I know how hard it is to piece together a solid band that stands a chance in today's music world.' He said f*** that, trust me, let's jam just once, and if it sux then fine we'll give up completely. But if it rox and I mean rox! then we'll give being 'professional musician's as a career' another shot. We jammed, and needless to say, it was absolutely amazing. And I dont' mean amazing because it was the first 'real' jam session I had since I went into drummer retirement, but it was amazing because we clicked. Like a professional band should click. We're able to bounce off each other immediately and the sound that we produce (we have written nine songs with guitar, drums, piano, and bass - no vox) is so raw and killer that I KNOW IF IT GETS PRINTED IT'S GOING TO SELL!!!!!! [i know that's what everyone says, but trust me, it will] Truly so far, this is turning out to be an amazing VH1 Behind the Music, haha.
We began our hunt for a bassist as we wanted to fill out the instruments before getting a vocalist. We needed to find someone who was sick on guitar so that the transition to bass would feel and sound like a guitarist playing bass. Since we only believe in having one guitar player, the bass needed to compensate, and it certainly does with bassist Mike G. onboard. Unbeknownst to us, Mike has been playing in several bands in the same scene that my [Chris] previous band used to play. To make it even more of a 'VH1 Behind The Music" story, we even played some shows together without even knowing it!! Needless to say, we have filled out the instruments and are on the hunt for a vocalist.
So now that you know the back story, here is what we're looking for and looking to do. All three of us know that this is our last attempt to 'make it' in this almost impossible industry. We all have a backup plan just in case (i know from experience that this is the safest bet). Now that we have all the instruments, again all we need to do is find that vocalist and we'll be signed and off playing tours and making albums in no time, fulfilling every young kids dreams of being true rockstars. Easier said than done, but what I can tell you is that we have a 'never say die' attitude about the industry and this new band and since it is our 'last opportunity' we really truly are not going to let anything get in the way this one last chance. We need a singer BAD!!! A singer! One that can that can truly sing - that can carry melody and can harmonize and come up with some really amazing vocal arrangements and who can write lyrics extremely well. We need a singer that makes all the other artists look like amateurs. We want you to be as good as Mike from Bullet For My Valentine, as good as John Davis from Korn, as good as Chad from Mudvayne or Phil Anselmo from Pantera or Miles Kennedy from Alter Bridge or Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam, or Howard from Killswitch or Maynard from Tool (well, no one can be that good, but u get the point!). We want someone who truly is 1 in a million, and not 1 of a million. We want someone who can actually sing amazingly (mind-blowing) and someone who can scream if/when necessary (although Mike will do backing singing, Alex and I will be doing most of the screaming, should u not be able to). We need someone who is absolutely original and not just a knock off of somebody else. WE KNOW FOR A FACT WITH OUR DRIVE AND ATTITUDE THIS BAND WILL SUCCEED IF WE FIND THE RIGHT VOCALIST! I wanna keep stressing that to all of you!! I have tons of connections left over from a few years back that I still connect with so it won't be hard at all to play tons of shows and get 'noticed'. Plus with my film major, I know how to promote and advertise so I'll handle promoting the shit out of us so we can truly get noticed quickly within 5-7 months of starting. Our goal is to play 50 shows from October to the end of January, and then from March till May play 1-2 shows a week, and then by late spring early summer, start playing 2-3+ shows a week and hopefully by mid/end of late summer next year, we'll be talking with labels maybe even sooner than later. If we find the right vocalist, with the right dedication, then thats not a problem nor a non-realistic goal. This will def. build us a fan base and will get some labels to look at us. But getting noticed doesn't pay the bills and doesn't get us a record deal. We also want you to understand this doesn't mean you can't have a job, we all have jobs, but we are so hungry for this last opportunity we're scheduling around them so we can practice and play. When it gets to the point that we're making more money playing shows and gigging, then we'll worry about quitting our jobs, but for now we all need some sort of income.
We play metal/hard rock. A mix of Killswitch Engage, Sevendust, Pantera, Bullet For My Valentine, Metallica, [old]Korn, System Of A Down, Lamb of God, etc. and a whole slew of artists as you can't really say 'oh that sounds just like so an so' with our music (which is a great thing, it means it's original) - let's just say this sound is fresh, and when you hear it, you'll be like "Where do I sign up?! I want in!" The best thing about it, it's really heavy and some parts are really fast, but it's TOTALLY RADIO FRIENDLY!!! WHICH MEANS $$$$$$$$ AND POPULARITY!!! But much more importantly than money for our future families and popularity for our future ego's, the message that we want to deliver through our music is the most important reason why we are doing this.
Trust me ya'll we are pro's and if you want to 'get to the top' if you can hold your own, then this is truly the band for you. We have already come up with a name, and image, and have solidified our brand. But don't worry as you can tell we have a business mentality so the name, image, and brand will sell - trust you'll love it and think it's a perfect fit along with the positive message we're going for. We've trademarked the name and copyrighted the music and are in the process of getting our Federal Tax ID# for the band to be a legitimate business. The next step is management and then labels. We're getting as much of the business side taken care of now, so when it comes time to lawyers & labels, we'll have everything already either done or prepared. A label wants to see professionalism and that's what we'll be giving them on a silver platter. Hello record deal! We'll talk to you all more about that over the phone when you all call or when you all come down. Anybody can say they can sing and fumble around with a few notes or vocal melodies here and there, but it takes a real vocalist to actually mold a tight band.
Give me a call IMMEDIATELY so we can chat. We truly do look forward to speaking with all of you, and we hope you all have the talent you say you do. Please get back to me 203-234-0761 or try my cell which I always have on me 203-815-5627 [Chris]. We practice at my pad (a sweet setup, perfect for a band/studio) in North Haven, CT -- I know it might be a haul, but keep this in mind, my guitarist Alex, travels from Greenwich every single time we play (1-3x/wk) which is a 3.5 hour round trip every time! THAT'S A COMMITMENT SO YOU CAN TELL HOW SERIOUS WE ARE. Thanks for reading this long ass post and I can't tell you enough, that this might be the opportunity for you. If you've read this far, then you're obviously intrigued, all you need to do is take the final step; pick up the phone and call us!
Please if you really wanna do this as a career or at least try to, then call my number immediately. Doesn't matter if you read this in 10-20 min and wanna call (it's 3:47am right now while i'm typing), go ahead and call if I don't answer just leave a messg. and I'll get back to you asap. Now that you know our history pretty much, Let's do this. YES, we do have samples that we can send you so you all have time to write some lyrics and be as PREPARED AS POSSIBLE DURING THE AUDITION. During the AUDITION, you'll be doing live vocals (with the band) and studio vocals (without the band to a track) so please focused and as professional as possible. Please DO NOT WASTE OUR TIME, as we don't have much of it and every second to us is precious. As of this post we have already tried out 7 singers and NONE are what we are looking for, so this just goes to show that we're not settling for average, or good, but we're ONLY settling for unique, amazing, mind-blowing. If you think you've got what it takes, then call immediately. Talk to you all soon and I can't wait for all of you to try out...
hopefully you're new bandmate,
Chris C.

Drummer looking to play out
Hey my name is John. I have been playing drums for about 20 years and I am looking for a band to join. I have about 7 years of experience playing live and have lots of connections for gigs. My influences are varied, but I love the 80s rock bands. I love Van Halen, Rush, and just about anything that was popular in the 80s. I have played everything from doo wop to Blink 182. I have a day job, but I am pretty serious when I play out. I am looking to practice once a week and play out 2 or three times a month.

Recording Project Collaborative
I am looking for musicians to form a collaborative/collective that will meet once (perhaps twice) a month to create music in recorded form.
The music will have no set genres or preconceptions - a "no rules" situation of making music it will be.
I am looking for Musicians, Artists, & Engineers to put on a roster. I figure membership to this collaborative will have a revolving door policy as not everybody will or will want to make every meeting. This will not be a big commitment, so if you have any interest in this OR know someone who would be right for it let me know.
The recording studio where we will convene is in Seymour, CT

Original power metal holding bass auditions
Sixth House, an original power metal band based in Branford, is auditioning bassists. You must be reliable, hard-working, dedicated, and able to work in an environment where the vision and sound is already established.
We're looking for a solid bassist who can come in and learn the established bass lines, write their own lines to new songs, and be a solid anchor with our drummer. You don't have to be a virtuoso, but you must be steady, solid, and able to pick things up quickly. We're not looking for somebody to come and try to change what we've done or what we're doing, nor are we looking for somebody who'll show up when they feel like it. If that's you, don't waste our time.
Good gear, the ability to get to rehearsal on your own, and a good attitude is a must. Current practice schedule is Friday evening and Sunday afternoon, and can be flexible(especially over the winter). This is a good opportunity for a bassist with a great work ethic and desire to play in a band that rises above the rest of the local scene in terms of writing and music.

51 Y.O. newbie
About a year ago, at the tender age of 50, I decided to start my music career. I'm hoping to find people in the same or similar situation, or more experienced players with an over abundance of patience interested in getting together to play. Hopefully I'll be able to learn a bit, and maybe give a few pointers. Blues, southern/classic rock are my areas of interest. Electric and acoustic, but prefer electric. Please disregard my first ad as the email address is incorrect.

Hard Rock Vocals Looking for Fun Project
Looking to start a band to play hard rock/modern rock cover songs and possibly get into originals, but mostly looking to have some fun and make extra money. Was toying with the idea of a staind cover band. I have a lot of contacts from playing through the years so getting shows/money won't be a problem. Not looking to make anything big out of this, again, it's a spare time kind of thing (practice once a week or so, gig few times a month). I have other stuff I am working on full time, so I'm looking for people in a similar situation.

Vocalist, keys, bass looking to join/form wedding band
I’m 59 from Old Greenwich, part time musician and early retired from IT security field. I’ve played bass and sang lead, backup and harmony vocals in groups for over 40 years and toured with a group for several years, but mostly part time musical work. (had to get kids through college)
Besides the lead vocals, I’ve developed decent keyboard skills over the past 5+ years. Done some solo keys/vocal jobs, 5 piece group work and even fronted a couple of big band jobs recently.
Been looking for a local group or members to form one, to play out once or so a month, not the 2 am bar scene, rather decent players that enjoy playing at afternoon or early evening gigs (i.e., clubs, parties, weddings; done a lot of those in the past, good $, happy crowds, even refreshments), and make some respectable $. Would be willing to fill in as required for an existing group.
I want to do some lead singing and prefer to play keyboards, but will play guitar or bass if a super keyboardist is available. I like classic pop/rock but also like 50’s (Elvis, Gerry Lee, etc.) the standards (Sinatra, Bennet), light jazz (Steely Dan, Diana Krall, Getz/Gilberto) and country rock (Willie Nelson, Dylan, Charlie Daniels). I\'m quite flexible as long as a grove can be found.
Have all equipment, bass, guitars, keyboards, Amps, PA and rehearsal space (basement). Have some recording I did there on a hard drive available to interested parties.

Bass player seeks
Bass player looking for a band to start up this late summer. Would like to perform and write songs. I am in a band now, but we only really play covers at small parties, and we are in danger of breaking up this summer after a show in July. If you need a bass player in the southern CT area, let me know.
I like progressive, classic, hard rock, metal, but I am open to playing anything.
Also, if you need other band members, like a singer, drummer, or guitarist, I may be able to help you out.
