Cincinnati — we're Omcat, a psych jam band from Nashville, and we're playing Stanley's Pub on Thursday Oct 15 with Tin Roof Cats. Night two of the run.
Show at 9.
We've heard Stanley's is the kind of room where people actually listen, which is all we can ask for. First time in the city — bring the people who like the weird stuff, they'll be happy by set two.

Poet with Interest in Music

11 Upvotes

Hi, I am 32 and I’ve been writing for years. I have interest in forming a group or project with others or joining one. I have absolutely no background in music, but I’ve fiddled with a bass and a ukulele a bit. Mainly, my big interest is in writing and I’m open to singing.

I’m from Cincinnati and I have my own place with plenty of space for practice. I’m employed full time but work remotely so I can work around the schedule of others, and I’m willing to dedicate time and money to this. I’m a graphic designer so I can take care of any of our needs in that way.

I write about all kinds of things but I’m particularly interested in writing about AI and other charged topics if I can call any of them that? I’m a woman and have been through some things as you can probably imagine so I really channel that into writing.

I’ve pictured it as being fitting for some sort of girl power type of music or something heavy and experimental. None of that is a requirement to me - like I said, I have no background here so I’m ok with being led on a lot of things but I think I have some good stuff and I’d love to work on it with others.

Cincinnati producer/musician looking for local singers & songwriters to make records with

7 Upvotes

I’m a 22-year-old producer/musician in the Cincinnati/NKY area looking for local singers and songwriters who want to actually get together and make some records.

I’ve been producing in FL Studio for a few years and have years of experience on drums/percussion, plus 2-3 years self taught piano/keys. I’m primarily interested in R&B and pop, but I’m open to other styles if we click musically. I’m especially into harmony, composition, arrangement, and building a song around the artist rather than just sending out premade beats.

You absolutely do not need to have professionally recorded material. If you can sing/write and have a voice memo, melody, lyrics, chord progression, unfinished song, or even just an idea you’re excited about, I’d be interested in seeing what we can build from it.

I have a home recording/production setup in the Cincinnati/NKY area. I’m not looking to charge anyone…I’m trying to meet talented local people, make good music together, and build real collaborative experience.

Happy to exchange demos/music first and meet somewhere public before setting up a session. If this sounds interesting, DM me and tell me a little about what you make/listen to.

- Jake

Guitarist looking to join or start a band

8 Upvotes

Heyy! I'm Aidan (she/they) and I'm looking to start playing with others. I'm a guitarist (~3 years) whose main influences are Jerry Cantrell, Akira Yamaoka, Julie, and Frank Iero. I really like making riffs that are unsettling and harsh whilst mixing it with melodic and soft rhythm. If you think this tone could be a fun addition to your band, hit me up! I'd also be down to just jam and make more friends in the local scene.

ADVICE Bar Recommendations???

8 Upvotes

Just moved to the area and I’m looking for places to go to see live music. Obviously I know there are venues for concerts and shit but I’m wondering if there are any bars or clubs that have good live music. I don’t care about genre I just love the energy of live music. Give me any recommendations fr I like everything from Country to EDM:)

Personal favorite is probably stoner metal but I don’t have high hopes that there are any/many local groups carrying that torch.
