Guitar forming band, originals that sound original

New York City NY

Description

Influences stuff that I like, sounds cool or is interesting: CCR, Zeppelin, Stones, Nirvana, Dirty Rotten Imbeciles, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Lindsey Buckingham, Brainiac, The Beatles, Black Sabbath, John Lee Hooker, Bob Wills, King Crimson, The Buzzcocks, Les Paul, Bob Wills and The Texas Playboys, Deep Purple, Sy Oliver, Glenn Miller, Slim Harpo, Link Wray, Blind Boys of Mississippi, Big Black, Three Dog Night, Mose Allison, RL Burnside, Doris Ann Allen, Squeeze, Elvis, Dixie Dregs, Slade, Simon and Garfunkel, Badfinger, Ten Years After, Loony Tunes, Spike Jones, The Beach Boys, Raymond Scott, Hank Williams, Nelson Riddle, punk, new wave, folk, classical as well, tons of stuff. I'm not influenced by current bands or artists of the last 15 years because it's just not happening there lol. Don't expect classic rock or punk idioms done like it's 1977--45 years ago. It's not new anymore. That era is over. The train has left the station and it's not coming back. The songwriting in this band will not be a direct parody of zombie idioms and genres. It will have some of the cool flavors, but not the parody aspects that make current bands (who are trying to sound original) sound dated and not in a good way. Are you looking to get out of the rat race and write record tour make a living/full time? Meee tooo.
