Description

I'm a guitarist, singer and songwriter in East Hollywood looking to form a band Employed, have transportation, vaccinated Stylistically the band I'm hoping to form could be categorized broadly as Indie Rock with a lot of influences from 60s and 70s Country, Soul, Pop and Rock as well as a fair amount of 80s, 90s, Alternative, Punk, Shoegaze influence Short version, I'm just trying to play fun, upbeat, relatively hard hitting Rock with a twang and a willingness to explore I'm hoping to find creative and inspired people not necessarily professional musicians No previous band experience is necessary Urgently looking for a drummer and a keyboardist(keys, piano, keyboard, synth, organ, rhodes, mellotron) to really get this band started I have some folks interested that will cover bass and guitars(as well as a possible trumpet player) though other instrumentalists are welcome to reach out, violin or cello could work great, so could pedal/lap steel, mandolin Here is a list of influences Bruce Springsteen, Minutemen, Dennis Wilson(70s Beach Boys too), Tom Petty, Starflyer 59, Gram Parsons, Joni Mitchell, Lucero, Husker Du(Sugar, Bob Mould solo stuff), Dan Andriano(of Alkaline Trio), John Prine, Teenage Fanclub, Neil Young, The Gaslight Anthem(Brian Fallon's solo stuff too), Wipers, Jawbreaker(but maybe more like Jets to Brazil), Lucinda Williams, Bear vs Shark, Jesus and Mary Chain, Elvis Costello(the first few records produced by Nick Lowe), Radioactivity(and The Marked Men), Galaxie 500(and Luna), Nick Drake, Warren Zevon, Merle Haggard, Buck Owens, Yo La Tengo
