Bassist needed for Shroud of Earth (Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti)

Bassist needed for progressive death/thrash band Shroud of Earth based in Ann Arbor. We are a drummer and guitarist with a set of songs together, and we are ready to play shows. We are looking for a reliable bassist with professional gear to rehearse 2-3 times a week with the aim to record a professional demo and play multiple shows a month in the major cities in Michigan and eventually Chicago and elsewhere.

Our music is rooted in death metal and incorporates a lot of melodic and rhythmic progression, in the vein of Mastodon, Opeth, Enslaved, Carcass and Neurosis.

We are looking for a responsible individual like ourselves; we all have full-time jobs but are committed to putting together a top-notch outfit and taking opportunities as they present themselves. Age is no obstacle; we’re looking in the general range of 21-40 but all qualified candidates will be considered. Nothing against recreational herbs but no unreliable druggies/alcoholics.

You can check out our demos at myspace.com/shroudofearth

in need of bassist and singer

Hows it going fellow musicians? We are a three piece band consisting of drums and 2 guitars. We are all 20 and very good at our instruments. We do not have egos. We do not feel like this is our band. We are VERY dedicated and will never miss practices. We are looking for other members who are like us and share our dream of playing music. Our ultimate goal is to make it big, but it's NOT about the money. It's about playing in front of thousands of people and getting a huge rush for it. We are looking to form a band with strong influences on Three Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, and Seether. However, you must understand that while we are making radio friendly songs, we write whatever sounds good, not just radio edits. We have some heavy songs that run along the lines of Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet for my Valentine, and Iron Maiden influences. You must be OK with that, that's all we ask. We are looking for people that are really open minded and aren't just looking to make radio friendly music to get famous. We truly feel like writing what comes to mind and taking it from there, but trust me, it does sound good and I am saying that without ego or bias.

What we need: A bassist and a singer. You should obviously be talented and willing to leave at the drop of a hat. This probably isn't for you if you have a wife and kids, however if you truly believe it won't get in the way, do respond. We aren't against any race or age as long as you are dedicated, drug free, and ready to rock and go on tour.

We have a place to play that has 2 amps and a drum set. It also has a mic, but a singer with a PA is a bonus. We don't have any bass equipment, sorry. Sad As stated above, we are very willing to travel, just hit us up.

Please help us make this dream come true. We look forward to hearing your responses and meeting all of you!

(*Note we are from Toledo, but are willing to travel up to an hour away for the right people. We are also willing to pay for those truly talented musicians gas if they have to travel longer than an hour distances. So, don't be discouraged if you live far away)

Singer looking to start something new! (Ann Arbor)

Hello,

Thanks for reading my add! I am a singer looking to start a project. I realized that music is my one and only passion and being 25years old its time to start trying to share that with the world. I love acoustic music and singer song writer type stuff like Matt Wertz, Matt Nathanson, Deathcab for Cutie, and Mates of State, as well as many more. I would love to find a female guitarist that can also do back ups and write music. I only sing but I do write lyrics and have my degree in English. Eventually it might be cool to have other members in the group like key boards, or a strings player. I am very serious about this, so I am looking for someone that really wants to perform, record, and eventually tour. Please email if interested, please include some basic information about yourself and experience.

A little about me My Name is Doug, and I am 25 years old. I live in Ann arbor downtown. I am an award winning vocalist winning many singing competitions over the years. I also write song lyrics and poetry and am a trained dancer. I am very down to earth and am easy to work with. I have a full time job in human Resources.

Thanks again Hope to hear from you soon!

Drummer Wanted (AA///YPSI)

Delinquent, snotty garage/surf/psychedelic/punk/blues band seeks degenerate drummer. Influenced by Little Richard, the Cramps, Beach Boys, Satan himself, Dick Dale, the Ramones, Gun Club, Link Wray, voodoo, Motorhead, Love, Fear, debauchery, evil, and good times. We're not into funky hippie jams or double bass metal (Motorhead is as close as we'll ever get, and you ain't Philthy), so if that's you, best of luck- keep looking. Follow these links before you read any further. We didn't take the trouble to provide them for our own joy and merriment did we?

If you never played in a band before, we won't hold it against you ... as long as you can play and bring some style to the table. Our drummer has to move away, and we need somebody for upcoming shows in January. We rehearse right next to the liquor store, it's quite nice, really.

We are just starting out, mastering a few covers to build up our chemistry. We practice 2-3 times per month. I have excellent practice space in Chelsea. We have no plans to play out real soon.

Our current working song list includes Porcupine Tree, Tool, Kansas, Eric Clapton, Yes, Rush, King's X, Third Eye Blind, The Wallflowers, Pink Floyd, Our Lady Peace, Sun Kil Moon. In general:

- there is plenty of freedom with minimal limitations

Singing a plus of course. Come and jam once with us.

Guitarist looking to collaborate with keyboardist, horns, bassist... (Plymouth/Canton)

I'm a 24 year old guitarist of 8 years looking to collaborate with like minded keyboardist, horn players, and a bassist. Age is not an issue for me. I have a pretty solid theory foundation and have put together a few charts in my time. I'm not the greatest reader, but I communicate with musicians very well.

I'm very interested in creating a funky/jazzy/fusion inspired band, preferably all original. Maybe a few covers to thicken up a set list variation. I wanna make people move and some of the time, I'd want to make them move tastefully. Maybe a little electronica vibe here and there if you're into that. Maybe dare to make it progressive. I'd be interested in either instrumental and voclas, but I think finding the right sound and style is crucial before considering bringing in a vocalist (if need be).

As far as keyboardist, I'm a HUGE Brian Auger fan. His style on the the B3 is too hot to deny, IMO. Also, Chick Corea's work with Return to Forever is very smooth and tasty.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fysprB3Vd-k is a great example of what I'm trying to say here. Goes from smooth jazziness, to all out fusion, to a funky get down.

Here are some of related bands/musicans I'm into: Return to Forever, Steely Dan, Brian Auger's Oblivion Express, Soulive, The Meters, Jeff Beck, Chicago, Greyboy Allstars, Grant Green, Wes Montgomery, Curtis Mayfield, Marvin Gaye, Weather Report, Jaco Pastorius, Frank Zappa, STS9, Lotus, and a lot more.

I may have a drummer willing to participate, and maybe a percussionist as well.

Please e-mail me if you any of this interests you at all, and let's see what happens. Whether it be a friendly jam, or working on the proposed ideas above.

Tunes in particular Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison, One Week-BNL, etc. We have a large selection of tunes we like to play and love to learn new stuff. Our originals use a lot of odd time signatures 7/8, 5/4, etc. We are musicians who really like to have fun.

Looking for a guitarist who can solo...not necessarily shred but at least be able to play (preferably improv) a good solo. The ability to sing backup would be helpful too. Any music/lyric writing ability would also be a plus!

E-mail above if interested.

Jerry Garcia Band, Gov't Mule, etc (Ann Arbor)

I am thinking of putting together a rock band using the Jerry Garcia Band, Govt Mule, Allman Brothers, Derek Trucks band, etc. as the guiding light. I play bass, don't sing, am in my 50s and have current/recent/past experience playing in performing bands. I am not a leader or a front man, hoping someone comes along to fill those roles though I have ideas of some songs that can be covered. Instrumentation desired/needed would be vocals, lead/rtym gtr, keys and keys. Sax would be a bonus. I not sure where this would lead but it could be a lot of fun getting there. Not looking for anyone with drug/alcohol/anger/controlling issues.

Looking for lead singer (Ann Arbor/Saline)

Smokin' Lead Guitarist and a Rock-Steady Bassist are looking for a singer that can cover a wide range of songs...Such as....AC/DC, Aerosmith, STP, Alice in Chains, Def Leppard, Zep, 3 Doors Down,Collective Soul.....well you get the drift. We will be doing 95% covers with a few originals thrown in. Looking for someone in our age group(40's and 50's) although age is irrelevant, if the attitude is right. We're looking to play out 1 to possibly 2 times per month and 1 time per week for practice sessions. Our goals are #1 To Have Fun. #2 To get tight as a band. #3 To do a paying gig at clubs of our choice, once/twice a month. We are very laid back guys, so the singer that ends up joining us must be as well. No egos please. Oh, did I mention....no drugs, booze or any other annoying habits either? Sorry for this lengthy post, but hopefully it will click with someone out there in Craigslist land. By the way, we have a drummer, but we are not sure if he is as committed as he needs to be, so if you know of a drummer that may be a match for us please let us/him know. We have PAYING gigs lined up-just need the right front-man. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Brutal Band looking for Quick-Fingered Bassist (Vids available) (Ann Arbor/Saline)

We are a heavy instrumental group from the Ann Arbor area who have been working on some brutal new material, as well as some covers.
As a metal band, we want our sound to be fast and tight. We are looking for a bassist who can keep up to help cohere our sound.


Influences are Lamb of God, Trivium, BFMV, As I Lay Dying, Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, etc. etc.
Check out our vids on YouTube

We are all over 21, and the occasional band trip to the bar is likely, but we take our music seriously and practice regularly, usually Wed. or Thurs. nights, in Saline.
We have a great practice space and would love to thicken up our sound with some tasty bass.

You would have to have your own equipment, and be willing to practice once a week.

And for a gesture of your ethic, we will ask you to learn at least one song before coming to jam with us, just so we have somewhere to start.
We play:
- Lamb of God - Laid to Rest
- Trivium - Pull Harder on the Strings of your Martyr
- As I Lay Dying - The Sound of Truth

or you could watch our videos enough to figure out a sweet line for one of our originals. That would be sweet.

You can email from here or call me (Aaron, guitar) at 734.497.3603

Thanks for stopping by.

Bassist Looking for Band (Ypsilanti)

I'm 27, relatively new to Ypsilanti, and looking for a project. I have 12 years of playing experience and cut my teeth on gospel, rock, and jazz though I'm interested in much more. More than anything I want to play music that people can move to. Be it full on funk, twisted carnival, or balls out punk, I don't care as long as there's real rhythm! I've been on tours and cut albums that were never printed and all the other stuff. I don't want to go there again. I'd like to play local (S.E. Michigan, N.W. Ohio) shows, get a little cash out of it, and make a run of CDs to sell. I have no intention of "making it big." Music is an incredibly important part of my daily life, not my dream life. As for rehearsal and performance etiquette, I may have a drink during practice but perform stone cold sober. Not 420 friendly. And always remember, bar tenders and sound guys make the world go 'round. Tip them. They deserve it, and you'll get more shows.

Cheers,
~Brandon

Steven Tyler!

Hey! We could use a 61 year old singer that isn't afraid to fall off an occasional stage! Drop me a line!

Hello,

I am trying to teach myself the guitar and I can probably do percussion as well. I absolutely love to sing. I have a very developed vocal range and a unique voice, I just need an opportunity to use it. I would love to work with you and create great music! I am very easygoing and friendly and I can work well with pretty much anybody.
Drop me a line!

Lead Guitarist Needed (Ann Arbor / Saline)

Our lead guitarist had to leave the band due to his work schedule, so we are looking to audition a new lead guitarist.

LT and the Groove Theory has been together for awhile. We are a group of seasoned professionals that enjoy playing music and making crowds happy. We have a strong following of fans and have experience playing out together.

Our band is made up of a female lead singer, drummer, keyboard player and a bass player. All that's missing is You!

Our set list is comprised of a lot of blues rock (classic and new), classic R&B and some classic rock. We are not just another classic rock band or alternative group. We believe we have something very special going on, with our music and how we get along personally.

We are looking for someone that can commit to our group - not anyone that is part of another band that isn't playing out that much. If you commit to us, then you won't regret it.

We practice now at least 1 time per week with plans to step it up once we have a guitarist in place to twice per week so we can be ready to play out again in December.

Some of the artists on our set list include:

Aretha Franklin
Koko Taylor
James Brown
Wilson Pickett
Albert King
Duke Tumotoe

and many, many others.

We are holding auditions frequently until we find someone, so please reply with your contact info so we can setup a time for you to meet the band and play some tunes.

Serious inquires only please.

80's ish Cover Band Needs Lead Vocalist (Saline)

We need a high octane, full throttle, balls out lead vocalist that has the skill to know that their voice is their instrument, and the creativity to play their instrument as we play ours. A front man, or woman, with so much charisma on stage that Axl and Bret both would not be worthy!. We want the solution to the personality, skill, and commitment equation; with personality compatibility being paramount. The type of music we do is very demanding of a lead vocalist and front man...or woman, and we expect that you would know if you are capable of performing at the level the music requires. We do not want you to simply perform a karaoke contest. Rather, our missing element will add their own creative insight to every song, while preserving the core elements of that song. We know what the original recording artist can do. Now show us what you have that the original artist does not. That is the person that is right for us. Although the genre itself has a lot of vocal screaming, we want the well rounded vocalist that can sing the material, not scream it as a karaoke singer would. Although, "screaming" may be warranted and you should throw it in where you feel it belongs. And do so with style!

We are an established 80's harder rock/hair metal, with some older and newer material in our repertoire, cover band. The older and newer material we do is done in a way that remains true to the 80's metal era. Safe to say we spruce things up a bit. We have very active lives outside of the band, i.e. day jobs and families, and therefore are NOT into it, dare I say, "to make it big." We are together because of our passion for music and the out right blast we have while playing/performing together. Therefore, we take the music, ergo the band, very seriously. We check our egos at the door and bring an open mind to the studio for each rehearsal. The rehearsal atmosphere is very laid back and easy going, and we make each rehearsal an absolute blast. Each of us has the typical musician sense of humor and are consummate jokers. If rehearsal isn't a blast, if a show isn't a blast, it just ain't productive. If the band isn't having fun, the band isn't entertaining!

We have professional gear. Although, that statement in and of itself, is my favorite craigslist cliche. Our gear, PA included that really is top shelf though, is all high end equipment that can only be appreciated in person. The PA FX racks are a lead vocalists wet dream, courtesy of Eventide 7000 Pro Series and TC Helicon; just to give you a very small taste. We are not a garage band. The current members have all "been there and done that" in our individual music experiences, as we all have extensive and diverse backgrounds. Age and gender...yes, we are an EMOB, Equal Musician Opportunity Band, (we may not get much done, but damn do we have fun watching and listening to each other as each of us "spruces things up a bit"), isn't as important a factor as personality, character, commitment, skill, and entertainingmentability; yes it's one word that I just made up, but you can feel free to use it after signing a waiver, and writing the definition, and the phonetic breakdown for the word. Hey, it's only fair that I be able to pronounce the word correctly again. Our ages vary from the mid-30's through the mid-ish 40's. If you have what it takes, so long as you are legal to enter bars after 9pm and are willing to listen to, and learn from our own experiences, you'll be in like Flynn.

We are not a karaoke contest type band either. Hence, we do not put on a karaoke show, insofar as we don't blindly perform our material as though a CD were playing in the PA. Milli Vanilli ruined that possibility for everybody.We do not tolerate drugs, period! Alcohol consumption must be kept to a minimum at any band function. We are demanding of each other, but are pretty laid back in doing so. Essentially, because communication is paramount, we know what each of us expects from one another, and we simply do it.

The band is a five piece with you being the fifth member. We have a rhythm guitar, a lead guitar, bass, and drums. We don't have room for keys, acoustic guitar, or another rhythm/lead guitar in our band. Our guitarists are more than capable of handling all of the guitar work. Sorry, too many bad experiences. Oh the horrors.

experienced Musician...Looking to Form a band (Ann Arbor/ Ypsilanti)

Hi there, I am a female vocalist, I also play a bit of guitar (I sport an acoustic number). My music is folk/ rock in influence. About me…. I was in a band in Southern California until recently (August). My drummer and bass player were deployed, so I came home to Michigan for school. I would ideally like to put together a band… that is willing to travel (obviously, a lot of work will have to be put in first). The band I was in was great, but was a classic rock cover band. We all had original music, but that wasn’t paying any bills. I enjoy a good cover, now and again, but I would really love to find some truly TALENTED musicians (who are NOT ego-maniacs) to rock out some original work with. I have a ton of songs of my own, and would love to collaborate and make them awesome, and would love to meet like-minded people who want their music to be heard as well.

Ideally I will be moving back to southern California by May, but if I find “the right people” i.e. not in the military (or not active or going to be deployed any time soon) I would love to tour the states and play out in as many cities as possible and keep it going until it ends… if we mesh, hopefully we could keep it going for a long-long time. Big ambitions I suppose, but if you are ALSO ambitious, goal-oriented, and can bring something to the table (even if you don’t write music) I would love to meet up and see what could become of this. If you have time to commit, give me a call!

My name is Jen
My number is 858-232-6206… leave a message…. What you play, what your style is, how I can reach you and maybe when you would be available….
Email is cool too, and you can give me any YouTube or MySpace links, if you’ve got ‘em.

Looking to put something together with
-Lead guitar
-Bass guitar
-Drums
-other???? You tell me
-oh yeah... a place to play?

If you play guitar or base guitar, it would be cool if you have some back-up vocal skills too!
Male or Female, makes no diff. If you’ve got skills,

Thanks

I say Rockabilly-ish because I love roots music but I can’t label myself as 1 genre. I need variety and I desire to be challenged to stretch myself as a musician. We might do “Flyin Saucer Rock n Roll” then jump into “Free Ride” by Edgar Winter then Stray Cat Strut and Then California Sun. ITS ALL GOOD!

I am not looking for a classic rock group… There’s no punch line here (Seriously) But I am also not looking for Traditional Rockabilly Either.

I have originals and I sing Tenor. I love doing backups too! I am very easy to work with I have a Great P.A. a Travel Trailer and I am itching to get playing again. My last group ended after 3 years (good run)
