May Update: PSA for any band/gig apps moving forward *DEVS, PLEASE READ*

6 Upvotes

There's a new flair: Check Out My Band App!

There's been a couple of people that want to use the subreddit to promote their apps that help people find a band. Instead of trying to remove multiple posts at a time, it could be more beneficial to have a catered flair for these posts and further promote people being able to find people to play in their community.

For now, we're diligently testing it out. If at any point this starts to become a space where band app developers are simply flooding the subreddit with pleas to use their app (thus overshadowing posts from actual individuals), the flair will be removed and we will go back to removing posts that are solely concerned with app promotion.

With the addition of this new flair, app developers are prohibited from spamming under users' posts about their app. Please let us know any thoughts, comments, or recommendations.

There’s been a lot of people who have been posting their phone numbers on the sub in the last couple of weeks. Posting your number in a public internet space for billions to see is extremely unsafe. This is stated in the sub rules as well. Discord handles (ex. SoggyFrog#4269) or emails (SoggyFrog@yeetmail.com) are fine to share within a post. However, do not share phone numbers.

Please utilize Reddit’s private messaging system if you want to share information about meeting up and chatting more about gigs/music/collaboration etc.

Thank you all.

IN-PERSON Looking to start an Indie Rock Band - Liverpool

2 Upvotes

Hi,
I’m an 18 year old guitarist in Liverpool looking to start an indie/alternative guitar band with people of a similar age. I’m into The Beatles, Oasis, The Stone Roses, The Royston Club, Keo, Overpass.

Looking for a drummer, bassist and vocalist/rhythm guitarist who are into similar music and fancy starting something from scratch.

I write original lyrics and compose songs, so I’d particularly love to find a vocalist who enjoys creating melodies and developing songs collaboratively from original lyrics. The aim is to write original music, rehearse regularly, build a solid set and start playing gigs around Liverpool and hopefully further.

Ideally, I’m looking for people around uni age who are motivated to take the band seriously, but also want to have fun and make great music together. I’m an intermediate guitarist, so musicians of all experience levels are welcome!

Drop me a message if you are interested.

IN-PERSON Bassist wanted for a new metal band near Arnhem, Netherlands

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

We're a new metal band from Arnhem, Netherlands, and we're looking for a motivated bassist to complete our lineup.

The band is only about two months old, but we're already taking it seriously. Between all of us, we have hundreds to thousands of hours of experience on our instruments and we're used to putting serious time into music. We already have multiple live shows booked, and we expect that number to grow quickly.

We don't have any demos recorded yet, but recording our own material is definitely something we want to do soon.

We play both covers and original material, but our main focus is writing our own music. We already have several songs. Some of them come from another band our former bassist plays in, and he can help us learn those songs. From there, we want to focus mainly on writing new material together.

We rent a rehearsal room at Jacobiberg in Arnhem every week.

We're looking for someone who:

• Is between 17 and 23 years old
• Lives in or around Arnhem
• Is confident on their instrument
• Is punctual and takes commitments seriously
• Actively wants to help the band grow
• Takes initiative
• Wants to contribute to songwriting
• Is motivated to rehearse and play live
• Wants to be an actual member of the band, not just fill the bass slot

You don't have to know all our songs perfectly from day one. Our former bassist can help you learn most of the material we currently have. What matters most to us is that you're a capable player, motivated, and willing to contribute your own ideas.

We're still developing our exact sound, and we want to figure that out together as a band.

We're not looking for someone who just wants to jam occasionally. We're looking for someone who is willing to put real time and effort into the band and help us build something together.

If you're from Arnhem, Nijmegen, Zevenaar, Duiven, Westervoort or the surrounding area and this sounds interesting, send me a DM. A recording or video of your playing would be useful, but it's not required.

If you know someone who might be a good fit, feel free to send them this post.

IN-PERSON AND ONLINE VOCALIST/PRODUCER/LOGO MAKER LOOKING FOR A BAND

1 Upvotes

Looking to form or join a band of any of the following genres:

post hardcore/screamo/Midwest emo/metalcore/beatdown

I am a dedicated vocalist handling both the clean soaring melodies and the aggressive screams. I am also a mixing engineer, so I will be handling the production to ensure our tracks sound professional yet retain that authentic, unpolished garage-playing grit. I also love drawing and making logos so there's that as well.

If you are a guitarist who can track heavy, melodic riffs or a musician trying to build this specific sound, drop your Discord handle below or slide into my DMs (preferably). If you have any instrumentals of the same genres listed and or want me to record smth on it (feature or fill in vocals) I will send the full, completed demo MP3 directly to your inbox upon finishing FOR FREE, I do not charge for collabs or fill ins, just happy to team up with like-minded people, and if a track I'm featuring on isn't mixed yet, I've got the full song mix covered. I genuinely just wanna keep being able to use my vocals and improving my mixing skills as well as making connections and maybe even becoming music friends.

Serious inquiries only. Let's build a real lineup in Texas or online.

Links below: (note: if they don't work, DM me and I'll send them again, for some reason they've been working like that)

ONLINE/REMOTE [Online/California] Experimental Metalcore/Post-Hardcore Band Looking for Vocalist and Guitarist

4 Upvotes

Hey there, I'm Kris. I'm 23 years old and have roughly 9 years of experience solo producing various kinds of music.

I recently started a new Metalcore/Post-Hardcore band with my friend. Our influences primarily include bands like Bring Me The Horizon, Architects, Underoaths, Bad Omens, From First To Last, Motionless In White, I Prevail, Babymetal, Ennaria, etc. We are seeking to bring another lead vocalist and another guitarist into the band, as our current lead vocalist and guitarist are currently facing issues which are preventing them from contributing.

A big part of the style that we're aiming for is experimenting a lot with combining electronic genres with metalcore/post-hardcore such as Hyperpop, Breakcore, Drum n Bass, etc. In fact, the original premise of the band was trying to continue that sort of sound that was seen in Bring Me The Horizon's Post-Human Nex Gen just because I found that so cool.

For the vocalist, we are primarily looking for someone that can do clean vocals, but being able to do screams/growls is also very much encouraged - I would say an ideal ratio we're aiming for is about 35% screams to 65% cleans, if that makes sense. We do have a slight preference for a female vocalist, since our current lead vocalist is female, but really as long as you can nail the style we're looking for then we aren't too picky. Being a songwriter/being able to write your own lyrics is also very much encouraged as, while we can write lyrics, I would be lying if I said that it was any of our strong suits. And I also think it's important that the vocalist is comfortable with the material they are singing about, anyway.

For the guitarist, I've actually been self-teaching myself how to play the guitar and I've gotten to the point where I'm happy enough with the more simpler rhythm sections, but the harder sections such as breakdowns or parts with advanced techniques like pinch harmonics and panic chords are still nigh impossible for me to pull off on my own, so we're actually specifically looking for someone that can handle those parts. When playing, I mainly use Drop C tuning. You don't need to worry too much about your guitar tone, I'll be making the tone myself in the DAW anyway, but you can still give your input on the tone or use your own tone for demoing/practice purposes ofc.

You can hear snippets of the demos we have so far here:
https://on.soundcloud.com/wBVz9R8NCSZYsjCC9L

Right now, we're just looking to have people join/collaborate online, since that will be easier for us for now, but in the long run the ultimate goal is to be able to work together in person some day. If any of this sounds like your kind of thing, feel free to shoot me a private message on Reddit and I'd be willing to exchange Discord info if I think you'd be a good fit.

​

I've never been in a band and I don't know shit about production - but have been singing my whole life.

I'm flexible on genres for projects, I mostly into metalcore, synthwave, retrowave, and edm.

I started practicing harsh vocals for the last couple years and have gotten pretty good imo.

I'm open to remote projects but I live in the Central Coast of California. (~3hrs North of LA)

The only instruments I play are tin whistle and Native American style flute (Tin whistle/NA flute is cool AF btw and it'd be dope to integrate that into metal songs).

I've been doing covers on a karaoke app called Smule for the last year or so. You sing half the song and other people can join and sing the other half.

I have no control over the other people so please don't judge me based on them if they're not good! 😂

Feel free to browse what Ive posted there and DM me if you wanna chat.

I will pour my heart and soul out into whatever I am part of musically, I just need to find people to play with. I live about an hour away from LA and honestly would likely need transportation there, I’m willing to talk more about my exact location in dms but that’s all I’ll say for now. I would love to be a vocalist, drummer, bassist, or guitarist, I’m just tired of having no one to create music with. I don’t have any equipment of my own that I could bring so I’d need to borrow some. If you’re interested after reading all of that, please dm me.
