Who else wants to start a Pop-Punk band?

Long Beach CA

Description

I play guitar, sing, and write a bunch of shit. I think drums, bass, and keys/1 more guitar would be good. I also definitely encourage everyone to be on vocals - lead or backing. I have a lot of influences so here we go: PUNK: Bad Religion, The Offspring, Green Day, Oxymoron, Stiff Little Fingers, NOFX, Anti-Flag, Sum 41, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, Joyce Manor OTHER: Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Silent Hill Soundtrack, The Weeknd, Kendrick, Walk the Moon, The Killers, Metallica, Snarky Puppy, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Alice in Chains, cheesy 80s hits, angsty 90s stuff I won't try to identify who I'm looking for so I'll say this: I approach music as a way to express things I couldn't otherwise so I write sad/angsty/love/interpersonal songs mostly. Also, my view of starting a band is - I honestly just miss 1) the band dynamic 2) the kind of music that is created when a group of people come together and build upon an idea together. I want to revive those feelings I had growing up and digging into a band I liked. If you connect with that, I say let's make some music together
