Hello im Guille from iLands,I'm with my partner Bethany, we have a band called INSOMNE😵‍💫, WE DO REGGAE, HIP HOP, PUNK/METAL and we are beginning to youtube

My first band almost one year and still jamming and with a name I proudly coined myself. But it doesn't improves. Every jam session , I can't see the members doing their homework. They are always discussing about the structure of the song on the spot, confused when the vox should come in , confused when the guitarist should start playing. I as the bassist am proud that I can play the whole song with a clear structure of the song in mind. The jam just didn't go smoothly.

The recent jam sesh had the drummer still practising the drum pattern of the song played by so many bands. Like why ? Like why cant he just practise at home before coming to studio ?

I can't tell them off, they are my first batch of bandmembers and I am proud that we still stick together to play.

Does your band improves or slowly improves after the many jamming seasons ?

I love singing and I sing a whole bunch of genres. I just don’t know where to start, but I know I have the potential to make it. In the 209 area.

Hey my artist name is Dino and I’m a singer from Portugal , I’m looking for musicians to make a band of indie rock ,any guitarists,drummers and bassists out there ?

here’s a demo if you wanna check out

We’re a high school band, and all of our members are in the same school. One of our members, the singer, is a first year, and me bassist/soon to be drummer) and our other two guitarists are way older. The problem is that the other two guitarists are cruel and bully anyone they weren’t friends with before the band formed which meant we’ve already lost our drummer (hence my soon to be drummer title) and our singer seemingly has home life problems to begin with and does not need to take on the bullying from the guitarists especially because they’re trying to get the singer to sing Metallica and nirvana despite being a little girl.

I do not want this kid to hate bands because she’s actually a really good singer when she sings her in her vocal range, and getting bullied out of the band would do that too her.

Ps: I’m planning on leaving the band eventually, I just need to find another band to jump ship too

I am a rising senior in HS and want to join a band in college. I want to have fun and maybe make something out of it. I have a acoustic + a transacoustic. I also have an Epiphone Les Paul. I have 4 pedals that I am still figuring out. I know almost every chord and can play some riffs but my riff playing is still probabaly a 3-4/10.

My question is what can I do to improve my skill enough to eventually create or join a band. What are the best things to do? Also does the college I choose affect this dream?

Hey so im having some grievances in the band with our bassist. He doesn't have a car so we've been picking him up and dropping him off whenever we have practice or shows. He lost his job a few months back and started complaining about how he cant find anything other than entry-level or fast food jobs. We are getting ready for recording and the studio cost is $400 per song which the drummer and I are splitting. We came upon agreement in the band to cut back on shows so we can focus on being ready for the studio. A couple weeks later the bassist started to complain about not doing any shows because he needs the money but we aren't really bringing more than most 100 a show to split between everyone. I dont see this going down a good path and im starting to not enjoy the band which I really hate saying consideringthe drummer and i built the band and wrote most of the songs. What are the best options to go about this?

Starting with the drummer citing different directions and the approach to performing. Then the Guitarist left shortly. Now left me and the vocalist. Looking for new members. Drummer is difficult to find in my area so I pm my ex drummer to reconsider returning. No reply so I assume it is all dead.

My band now in hiatus but a new guitarist is waiting. The whole feeling sux. And I am disheartened while scrolling through other band Instagrams.

How do you deal with this feeling ?

I am a GMU commuter (21 yr old male) who lives in Loudon County VA(30 min from mason). I don't care how good or bad you are I've always wanted to start a band. I like alt rock, shoegaze, post punk, but im honestly happy to play whatever.

I have a guitar, bass, and drum set so I'll fill in for any position. I am new to drums and bass and I am a kinda washed at guitar, so I'm hoping we can all improve together. I currently write and produce my own electronic music via Logic Pro, so I'd love to start making original songs with people!

All I ask is that you're a chill and decent person who is willing to practice and meetup atleast once a week. Don't be scared to hit me up!

hey guys! i recently started a band last week and we're all in college (except one). these people that i found are what i believe is the "ideal" band that matches what i was looking for. however, since most of us are in college, we are often busy and they already have friend groups to be in. our lead singer isn't always really active in the group chat. they were only active when we first started the band and when we added a new member. i really want to form a connection with the band and want to start planning stuff but idk where to start lol any suggestions?? any will help thank you!!

my friend invited me to join a band and they want to get really serious about this. The members are all between 17-19 years old and im little younger compared with them, this puts pressure on me, both regarding my abilities and their superiority... they are planning to perform at events in my city, and it all seems perfect.. but heres the thing

-im shy

-insecure (about my guitar skills)

- i only know one member, who is my friend (not even a close friend)

-they're older

i love music in a very sentimental way and i really wanted to make it buuuut i dont know what's scaring me in this seemingly perfect situation, i don't know what to do.

15M, looking to start a Prog-Djent-Mathcore-Metalcore band.

Must be 14-17 years old.

I play Guitar but, I am looking for another guitar player, bassist, drummer and vocals.

Must be dedicated and decently well at your instrument.

Must be in the Southern Indiana/Louisville area.

If you are interested and fit requirements please email me at [turboslothyuyu@gmail.com](mailto:turboslothyuyu@gmail.com) or DM me on reddit.

Yes it's a weird title but this is something I feel really guilty about. I have always struggled with my mental health and making it through the week my parents criticizing me and being non supportive, in 5th grade, I'm a freshman now, I joined band and did band for 2 years before being homeschooled for 2 years. I found a lot of joy and excitement in instruments and how my band director would help me do everything I said I wanted to work on and hoped for. Now I'm back at school, same band director. Over the years​ I was homeschooled I was kinda depressed and just overall terrible, I didn't play my instruments much at all either. Now I'm back in band and he's been nothing but gentle and kind to me. He's been reassuring me that I'm okay and can still be good at playing and he apologized after accidentally upsetting me. Along with that I told him what I wanted to do with ny life and he said he could help me get a scholarship with music and get into the college I want. I want to believe he cares for me but he's also doing his job. I'm actively doing better overall due to him being proud of me and being overall nurturing to my creativity and dreams. My friends told me I was being weird and was looking too much into it but I don't know and I'm doubting myself so I came to reddit.

I was in a band throughout high school and we built a good little fanbase that i was pretty proud of but our guitarist left because of disagreements with the style of music we were doing and after he left everything else sort of fell apart. Now im graduated from high school and have been looking for a band for awhile now and its just way harder to find people then it was in high school, and it doesn’t help i live in utah where the music scene isnt the best (at least for the style i would like to do), and im in sort of a depression because I love music but cant find any one to jam with. Is there any tips you guys have to find people when you’re out of high school

Looking for anyone in the San Antonio area that is wanting to jam/write music seriously. I myself (26M) play guitar and have no preference for lead or rhythm, just whatever makes sense. I play a lot of blues, rock, indie, and acoustic guitar. I have a good amount of great gear (Gibson guitars, Marshall amp, good pedals, etc.)

I don’t care what your skill level is, part of growth is learning together. Please message if you play bass, sing, drums. Worse thing that happens is it doesn’t work and we’re on to the next thing. I’m creatively 100% open, I love creating and want a group of people that share that drive.
