Starting Indie Band

Fayetteville AR

Description

I’m a singer/guitar player/songwriter here in Fayetteville. I’m looking to put together a group of versatile people that love to play, write and cover tunes. I put indie in the title but don’t let that narrow anything too much. I’m into a wide variety of genres including pop, funk, soul, some country, some rock.. I have a decent practice space (my garage) and would like to be able to have one or two rehearsals a week, with the intention of playing out regionally once a good set of songs is established. I also have an interest in possibly playing weddings as I have an “in” in that industry. Being able to write origins stuff is pretty important, and as far as covers go I’d want to take the songs we choose in a unique direction, kinda make them our own in a way. I would not want to be another bar band that just butchers the top 100 songs of all time list every weekend. I really dig the way Scary Pockets covers songs, look them up if you haven’t. As far as originals go- I don’t want to list a few bands and narrow the potential. I’ve created a playlist on Spotify called JP&theCaterpillars if you want to check out some of my personal inspo. I love harmonies so that will be a plus for any position. Male or female. What I’m seeking- Lead guitarist- can write and be the musical conductor of the group Bassist- actual bass player, groove machine Drummer- funky fresh and steady Keys Possibly brass of any kind If you can, send me a way to listen to something, if not that’s ok. ✌🏼
