chicago grrrl punk band

2 Upvotes

hi, i (24F) am looking for other people who love the 90s girl punk/riot grrrl sound (excuse 17, heavens to betsy, L7, babes in toyland, 7 year bitch, and some Kim Deal inspired stuff) to start a band. i’m a beginner vocalist and play a very little bit of bass so i’m mostly looking for beginners to work together and advance skills. i know i can sing in those styles but i think being with other creatives and people with musical knowledge will really bring it out.

i’m pissed, you’re pissed, let’s let it out. girls/femme people who were labeled as the weird kid in school preferred. authenticity required.

NO MAGA, NO NAZIS, NO RACISTS, NO TRANSPHOBES.

Vocalist (Oxfordshire/Berkshire/Wiltshire UK) looking to form Sludgy Hardcore band

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m looking to start a new heavy project based in the South UK located around Oxfordshire, Wiltshire (Swindon area), or Berkshire (Reading/Newbury area).

I'm aiming for something heavy, sludgy, and miserable in the vein of:

\- Brutality Will Prevail

\- Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean

\- Crowbar

\- Left Behind

I’m a vocalist in my 30's based in South UK, looking for bandmates around Oxfordshire, Wiltshire, or Berkshire. Ideally, I'd love to connect with similarly aged people (around 30s), but that's not a dealbreaker. Experience level isn't a massive priority either—as long as you have your own gear, know your way around your instrument, and are keen! The main thing is just finding people who are excited to collaborate, write original tunes, and get together for regular practices with a view to playing gigs down the line.

If this sounds like your kind of thing, drop a comment or shoot me a DM! Cheers!

Caut membri pentru un proiect mic de muzica în Bucuresti

Salut! Cant la chitara de aprox. 10 ani și mereu mi-am dorit sa fac parte dintr-o trupa sau măcar un mic proiect. Sunt destul de bun pe compunere, versuri, și am multe idei, dar din păcate nu am găsit oamenii potriviți. Imi plac mai multe genuri muzicale, ascult Vama, Voltaj. Bosquito, Bob Dylan, cargo, MJ, Nirvana etc. Daca stii sa canti la chitara sau la orice alt instrument, chiar și vocal, m-as bucura sa îmi dai un mesaj.

33M in mesa, az looking to start a alternative metal/electronic music group.

1 Upvotes

Hey there. My name is Tylor. I'm a musician and producer. I'm looking to start a music group with fellow musicians in the local area of the east valley. I live in downtown mesa, and I have musical equipment in my apartment such as a laptop with fl studio with a wide variety of plugins, a fender stratocaster squire guitar, and a fifine USB condenser microphone. I have produced music in the past and still currently do so for my solo albums. The genre I'm looking to play will be a mix of alternative metal/rock and electronic music, and I'm looking for at least a guitarist, a bassist, and a drummer while I do vocals. I'd like to expand upon my creativity as an artist by working with other people, and possibly play in front of open Mike places or smaller venues, plus distributing and promoting the music we will make which will be separate from my solo work. If there's anybody interested in this opportunity, please message me and we can discuss about it. If you'd like to listen to my latest solo work, here is my YouTube channel.

Putting together a pop-rap band in NY

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m a Queens, NY based artist in my 30's with 13+ years of writing, recording, and production experience looking to form a pop/rap/alt live band. My music is fun, upbeat, and hook-driven—think of a cross between pop-punk and 2000s/2010s hip-hop rhythm and rap flows. Since I handle the vocals and beat/stem production, my number one priority right now is finding a solid live drummer with their own kit who is comfortable playing to a click/backing track to lock down the rhythm section. Long-term, the goal is to add keys/synth-bass, violin, trumpet, and a female co-vocalist for pop hooks and harmonies.

Shooting to rehearse/jam at least once a week and aiming for local shows once the set is tight. If you’re interested, drop a comment or DM me and I’d love to send over some audio/demos!

NL (breda/oosterhout) BANDLEDEN GEZOCHT, [Grunge/AltRock]

1 Upvotes

Hallo! Ik speel gitaar sinds februari 2026 en ik ben iets later dan dat begonnen met vocals. Ik speel op een relatief oke niveau (helemaal gezien de tijd dat ik bezig ben), ik speel regelmatig bij Phoenix breda (open Jamsessies op podium). Ik ben een grote fan van Grunge & Alternative Rock. Mijn favoriete bands zijn NIRVANA & RADIOHEAD (andere bands die ik leuk vind zijn: Soundgarden, Green Day, Foo Fighters, Mudhoney & meer).

Ik ben op het moment bezig met het vormen van een band genaamd “ANHEDONIA”, ik ben al een paar maanden bezig maar ik heb niemand kunnen vinden (die ook daadwerkelijk opdagen of tijd ervoor vrij maken). Ik zoek naar mensen tussen de 14-19 die passie hebben in dezelfde muziek en graag een band willen. Ik zoek naar een basgitarist & een drummer (een extra gitarist of iemand die ook keyboard kan spelen zijn welkom).

We componeren alleen zelf muziek (een cover hier en daar is prima maar wij zijn GEEN COVERBAND!). Ervaring is niet van toepassing (als is dit je eerste keer met een instrument), OPDAGEN WEL!

Oefenruimte: Repetities zijn in Oosterhout (goedkope studio, split tussen 3-4 mensen is het bijna niks). Maar als het bij iemand (drummer) thuis kan, is dat ook mogelijk. Of een goedkopere / betere studio in Breda of Oosterhout.
