Guitarist Seeks Working Band

I'm looking for a working band - or one close to working - in need of a lead guitarist with vocal ability. Style of music is wide open. I am primarily a rock guitarist, but I include blues, jazz, country, as well as some slide, in my playing. Vocally I'm a baritone/tenor leaning towards tenor. I can definitely do backup vocals; I will do lead vocals, if needed. I have the necessary "pro quality" gear. I have a good work ethic. I am passionate about music.

I'm willing to practice as often as you want, and to play out as often as you want. I have a day job which does restricts me to weekends for out-of-town gigs.

If this sounds interesting, I look forward to hearing from you.

Looking for an Open Minded Bass Player

Remember when music used to be about making music? So do we. We are putting a band together that will hopefully cross genres between metal/goth/indie/atmospheric...whatever.

Must be willing to get together at least once or twice a week.
age 21 to 40ish
It is important to have a wide range of influences. I don't mean "everything from Rush to Skynyrd". Literally a 'wide range' of influences...like everything from Radiohead to Testament or J.S. Bach to Neil Young. In other words, please be able to play well and utilize most of the strings and frets on the bass.

Please be for real and motivated to work as a team to create some great music.

we've got some short audio clips of some jams we did off the cuff here:
http://www.myspace.com/herdpoison
the name is just a user name. we haven't actually fully agreed on the name for the band yet
the bass line on these clips were overdubbed later on by the guitarist.

full 16 channel recording capabilities. Nice space to practice. Cubase 5. Mac Pro. PA, amps, drums, keys...ready to go...we just need YOU.

Rik Emmett of Triumph -

Guitarist, Vocalist and Songwriter Rik Emmett joined a newly formed hard rock trio called Triumph in 1975. By '79 three albums had gone gold and platinum in Canada - two of these charted in the States, receiving serious radio airplay. By '81, they were firmly established as one of the premier touring rock acts in North America, with generous FM radio airplay support and heavy rotation on the fledgling MTV cable channel.

Rik Emmett has won awards from Best Guitarist at the '81 Junos to Best Smooth Jazz Guitarist in 2005. His induction into the Canadian Rock Hall of Fame in '93, the Music Industry Hall of Fame in 2007 and the Junos Hall of Fame in 2008 are highlights in an ever-evolving career. Rik brings his experience, integrity and unmatched vocal and guitar talent to The Winchester for a "Strung Out Troubadours" performance as a duo with Dave Dunlop.

There will be two shows tonight: 7:00pm and 10:00pm. Tickets for each show are $20.00.

Bassist Wanted for dedicated band

We are a guitarist/singer and a solid expressive drummer from the south hills of pittsburgh. We need a talented bassist to complete a rock trio. We are dedicated musicians who take our music very seriously (but not too seriously). This means that we are looking to learn covers, write originals, and eventually write an album, promote and tour. Music is our life. So come laugh with us as we jam and begin to work on the arrangements of new songs and covers. If its fun and exciting then we are up for it. However, we need to be clear about a couple of things. We don't want any big egos or people who are more interested in drugs/drinking/pussy/whatever else... than MUSIC. We are here to serve the music and make an earnest attempt at doing this because it is our passion and hopefully one day our career. Our music has been accurately pigholed as "progressive" rock but we are open to all styles. We believe that true progressive rock implies the word in itself --progress... It is the "style" of nothing in particular. Just some guys venting their frustrations and fantasies in a dark basement that is a shelter from the world. So anyways if your a creative dedicated bassist... lemme know, you just might be the right guy for us... imagine that! so maybe we can jam or perhaps focus on a few covers. Thank you.
