Band members wanted. Guitarist, drummer, maybe bassist, or any other offers!!!

Peoples wanted for band (or just general musical mayhem).
Nothing too serious, just a bit of a social giggle generally with the thought of the occasional gig at some point.
Age / experience / talent not as relevant as enthusiasm and a good sense of humor!
Currently we have a core of 4x 30something members (well, mostly 30something) for keys, 2x female vocals and bass. - Though if we can't find a drummer the  bass may slip that way, leaving space for a bassist - dunno...

We generally play covers, though not always in the style that they were intended (there is a sort of acoustic leaning, sometimes with a bit of a skank to it), but are not averse to original material.
So if you think you fancy some sacrilegious murdering of other peoples music, or think you can add something, or point us in another random direction, then poke us a message !

Want to stress that this is NOT a money-making band but that doesn't mean our playing ability is low!  We're not worried about your age as long as you like the music (we're in our 40's).  Rehearsals mainly in the Ashford area due to our location.

If this sounds like your thing then contact MAT on magiciv@hotmail.com so we can arrange a test drive !

Brianstorm - Arctic Monkeys
Time is Running Out - Muse
Best of You - Foo Fighters

Looking for lead singer / harmonica player (nice to have)

Band in North Kent area looking for a lead vocalist. Preferably male (though a female with the right attitude & voice will work). The music lends itself to Blues, Blues/Rock and some Jazz/rock. Much of the material is self written and is currently sung by other members of the band. The writing process is continuing so anyone who can contribute to this would be most welcome. We have been playing together for about 4 years although the collective gigging experience of the band covers too many decades to be polite to mention. (Thus, although age is largely immaterial, the band is not, repeat not, young.)

Established indie rock band seeks frontperson

Hi, we are He Who Dares, an established indie rock band from Maidstone. We have been playing together for over 3 years and have gigged all over Kent and London, earning some excellent reviews, coming 2nd in a battle of the bands for bands in Kent, and earning record label interest.

We have recently parted ways with our frontperson on good terms, and are now looking for a replacement. We'd like someone aged between 18-28, male or female, who has a strong voice, good personality, is confident and can bring fresh ideas to practice. Playing an intrument is not necessary, but is an advantage, as is being able to write song lyrics. At the moment we have an albums worth of music written, and would allow our new frontperson to write lyrics for this music as they see fit. Being spontanious and coming up with ideas at jams is a big bonus.

Most importantly, we really want someone who is commited, fun to work with, passionate and reliable. If you'd like a chance to come down to Maidstone for an informal auditon, please contact us.

To hear examples of some of our material and style, please visit our myspace: www.myspace.com/hewhodaresuk

Satan's Band Need A Rock Drummer

No. Not Santa. And 'Satan's Band' isn't our name either. We play hard rock/metal - awesome riffs and pounding drums (soon)... We're sick of musicians being so conservative and wanna cause a stink in the local scene.

Most ads on here say 'no egos' but we honestly don't care. An ability to play drums is a must. If you're brilliant, that's brilliant... If you're good, then good. All skill levels will be considered. Age isn't that important - no over-30s or under-16s. We wanna get gigging as soon as possible and get on with our plan to put on shows people will never forget.

If you think you've got the guts to be the drummer in a band that shows up at gigs and isn't afraid to act differently to the others - staring at their shoes and going over the same ground... Then get in contact. Now! You won't be disappointed... Trust me...
A sense of humour would be alright I suppose, but if everything seems to just go over your head then that's great.
Go on. Take a chance - just contacting us will show you have guts.

Do you wanna get rocked? Experienced Rock Bassist Needed for New Pro Standard Def Leppard Tribute

This is a really exciting project with gigs and potential overseas gigs and mini tours available.
We are looking for a Bassist to replicate Rick Savage in what will be the most authentic Def Leppard tribute. Pro gear and attitude essential. We do not do this full time and all have day jobs but take the music seriously.
Saying this we are all outgoing without egos and are looking for somebody likeminded. Obviously dirty blond hair would be an advantage, however if its not there you must be prepared to wig up for the part.
We are urgent to fill this position but will not comprimise the project

As this is Def Leppard confident backing vocals would definately be a plus
This could be the most exciting new Tribute project to come out of the South of England this year so don't miss the boat!
In the first instance could you email me a little about your previous bands equipment and availabilty together with a bit about your personaility. All of our gigs are generally weekends so this can fit in with full time work.
So come on "Lets get Rocked"

Snakebite - Europes top touring Whitesnake Tribute need guitarist for 2010 tour dates

Snakebite have now been playing for nearly 4 years and are regarded as the top Whitesnake Tribute Act. Having been featured in Claasic Rock Magazine as well as the Daily Express and many radio mentions they have just completed the 2009 Legends of Rock Tour around the O2 acedemy venues.
We are now looking for a talented guitarist with excellent technique, backing vocals and good stage presence. Snakebite do not play lead and rhythm guitarists and so you will have skills in both areas. We do not do this band as our main source of income though we do expect a professional approach.

In the first instance please email me your experience, previous bands and a bit about yourself (influences, equipment etc) to tom@snakebiteuk.com
It is essential that you have transport to get to and from rehearsals. For gigs that are long  distance travelling, the band does have the Snakebus which is a 6 seater VW LT 35 long wheelbase van that has taken us to the 4 corners of the UK and beyond these shores. It is also worth mentioning that sometimes overnight stays away from home will be expected. These are all at weekends.
This band is a lot of fun and we will welcome the new member in. However from experience we will not accept overinflated egos, the band is a team and no member can ever be bigger than the band.

Hi all,
The Kingsdown Band now have a vacancy for a full time female vocalist to start after 20th of december when one of the female vocalists leave. commitment is essential for rehearsals once a week and also for gigs.

you need to be of a good vocal standard and being able to harmonise is a must as there are 3 other vocalists to work with. if you are interested in just money we are not the band for you as we all gig more for the enjoyment rather than the money although the money is an added bonus, we do all sorts of gigs from pubs to clubs and weddings to funeral wake's basically we will do almost anything anywhere so you need to be happy to travel if needs be, all other band members are to professional standard and a good fun bunch and easy to get on with.

 None of our songs are played to backing tracks as we are a 12 piece fully live band when at full capacity so you can imagine the quality of sound we reproduce!!

Jazz / blues Guitarist wanted to form acoustic duo with sax player

Looking for a good guitar player to form a duo with sax player.

I have done all the gigging with bigger bands in my past and want to form an 'easy to manage' small outfit to do gigs around the Kent area. I play Tenor / Alto and Soprano sax and have recently being playing local gigs in the West Kent area to backing tracks in a few pubs / golf clubs etc.

Looking for a talented guitarist who can play rhythmically and percussively and has experience playing in acoustic / semi-acoustic environments.
Music wise, I am currently performing some of the 'real-book' standards as well as a range of swing and modern tunes in a light jazz style. So not for the gig for aspiring metal-heads!

Beat Band Need Drummer and Bassist

We're looking for a bass player and a drummer. We've got a really structured plan of what we'd like to do. That being 60's beat and Rn'B. we're planning to write originals within the same sound. Basic inspirations are the animals, the kinks, early stones (before '66) and a splash of the beatles. We're looking to finish this all off by having the vintage 60's MOD look too, hair and clothes. If your not quite sure what we're looking for, look into some more modern bands like - The Draytones, The Midbeats and Last Shadow Puppets.

Give us a shout if you'd like to have a try out.

Los Salvadores need a new member!
Our mandolin player has left so we have a spare space in the van! We are interested in hearing from anyone who plays mandolin, banjo, cello, or any string instrument that could add to our sound.
We would also consider trumpet, euphonium or similar brass, and woodwind such as clarinet or flute if it fits!
We have always been a band that's embraced change, so if you give our stuff a listen and hear room for your particular talent, give us a shout  www.myspace.com/lossalvadores
You must be prepared for the commitment which comes from being in one of the busiest non-professional bands in Kent.

We gig across the UK most weekends, and while it's a massive amount of fun and we wouldn't swap it for the world, it does leave you less time for other stuff such as sleep, pets, life modelling, crime, watching cartoons, etc.
But we can promise big gigs in front of big audiences that get bigger every year. In 2009 we played to more than 1,000 at Galhampton's Party in the Park Festival and currently have more than 120 festival applications pending.
We are not money/fame obsessed lunatics, but we do want to take the band professional on our own terms when the time is right, and we are earning enough cash! We want to do this because being in a band is more fun than any other job we can think of.

We currently practice near Faversham but this is flexible, as we are based all over Kent, but the ability to get to practice is a must.

Roll Up! Roll Up for the Magical Mystery Tour! Step right this way!

Hello people of Pepperland.
After my first successful recruitment campaign to gather together a set of fine musicians to play the tunes of my four protégées - no, not Dirk, Stig, Nasty & Barry but John, Paul, George and Ringo, I know find I still have a few places to fill!

So - how do you fancy joining the band? We aim to cover tunes of the Fab Four during their tenure in the Beatles as well as from the big split through to the solo careers

What am I looking for? Well, I'm on Bass (but still wanting to play guitar every now and then) so I need GUITARISTS who are happy to play electric or acoustic as needed and can also sing (and maybe take the bass if I fancy guitar on a song or two). I'm NOT looking for a lead singer who doesn't play guitar. that won't work :-( I want at least 4 lead singers but as you know, there are not many songs in this repertoire that don't have a single singer. Most if not all have at least two vocals if not 3 or 4 so for the most part - everyone will be singing.

I need also a KEYBOARD PLAYER. I say that because a pianist won't be enough. In my books, if you can play keyboards, then you can also play piano. You'll need to be able to sing too :)

We have the drums and the bass filled. We have a saxophonist too so any brass players out there fancy a shot?

So if you play guitar/bass/keys or brass and can sing...get in touch! Our first try-outs were a blast and all went well so it's time to take it to the next level.

YOUR SARGEANT NEEDS YOU for The Lonely Hearts Club Band!

Oh, and it's South East Kent (Maidstone to the coast)

Established Function Band requires multi-talented musician

Due to the recent successes of The InterSeptors we are now looking to expand our line up.  The band is extremely busy and will play around 100 gigs during 2010.  This will include both a number of high profile corporate and prestigious Holiday Park gigs as well as at least  European event and a mini Scandinavian tour.  During 2009 we have headlined at several large Kent event, including Ramsgate Rocks.  We have also played Rock On The Dock and the War & Peace show at The Hop Farm.  We are sure to be booked to take a more active role in these events next year.
In preparation for 2010, we are now looking for a new musician to join us.  This person should be either a Rhythm Guitarist or a Keyboard Player (We will happily consider other instruments).   This person should be female, as we are looking for them to offer backing harmonies (Vocal)

You need to offer us commitment to the band, both for gigs and rehearsals.  You should not be part of any other band or have other musical commitments that will stop you giving us  100%.  We all have day jobs and understand that this does have to take priority during the working week.
You will join a highly professional outfit, that is growing in popularity.  We are represented by several well established agents and will playing at several important "show cases" early next year.  We have our own band transport that will take you to all gigs.  Our PA is top notch and there will be no requirement for you to "buy in" to it. You will not have to be involved in the administration (financial or event arrangement) of the band as this is handled by outside professional bodies. Although we do a number of charity events during the year, you will receive payment for all other gigs, at the average market rate.

We do and will continue to play the local pub and club circuit, however during 2010 we will be concentrating on the larger events.
We are looking to finalise the band line up by the end of  October, so that we can complete recording as well as return contracts to prospective event organisers.
Although we are all fully committed to the success of the band we can promise you an interesting and varied experience.  It takes up alot of our time and bad band politics is NOT a factor.  You will enjoy being a part of this band.
I can send you the current playlist as well as a schedule of forthcoming gigs.  These also include some well know London music venues.
Please contact me as soon as possible to arrange a meeting

Brutal Death,Grindgore, Hardgore band seeks line up

Hello, I have been recording under the same name over the past 10 years, released EP's on various underground labels, appeared on split CD's with some of the best and even managed to play live a couple of times with makeshift line ups. I am seeking people to try and make a solid gigging line up for future dates, guitarist, bassist, vocalist (I would like to try two vocalists)it doesnt matter what you want to do as I can take over any role needed to be filled. A drummer would be nice but not essential as I have a drum machine - please note that I said drum machine there so if playing along with it would be a problem please think about it before getting in touch, I will say though a drum machine wont get drunk and go out of time, demand more money or try to steal your girlfriend.

Influences are many but I'll throw some names out: Mortician, Impetigo, Repulsion, Autopsy, CBT, ENT, Raw Noise as well as other genres like Doom, Crust, D-Beat, Hardcore, Punk (not pop 'punk' though, we'll leave that to the rich boys). If you would like to check out some of the material I will be more than happy to send some MP3's via email. Get in touch!

JAW FINGER needs new members ASAP reply quick

JAW FINGER needs Lead Guitarist , 2nd Guitarist , Bassist , Drummer and possably a Keybordist

Melodic Doom Metal band needs a Lead Guitarist , 2nd Guitarist , Bassist , Drummer and possably  Keybordist . We're called JAW FINGER well i say we're when i actually mean i called my new band JAW FINGER as i think it sounds super awsome . I'm a screamer / singer and have been doing vox for about 6 years now and have been in a couple of sucessful bands the last was a huge hit untill they kicked me out due to not agreeing with them on a change of band name sucks really but i did claim all of my lyrics back and sent them back to sqaure one as they nearly got signed lmao serves them right .
Anywho ........ i'm a huge fan of  Doom Metal ( My Dying Bride being my fave ) and i love the way the music is played ( deep slow yet meaningful ) but i want a small twist to this band ..... i want to keep to the deepness and slowness but just a tad faster and unlike My Dying Bride i wanna add some low screams or growls in each track aswell as clean vox .
Here are the requirements to quallify so to say lol
LEAD and 2ND GUITARIST : age range 18 - 25 , must have a good 1 - 2 yrs of  Exp ( experience ) , must own there own guitars pics leads and peddles ( no worries about amps as amps are supplied at the studio ) obviously own transport will be needed or able to get the bus or train ( bus stops right outside of studio and train station is just a 10 min walk from the studio ) , chip-ins will be required ( £5 per member thats all and the drinks are free ) , only need to bring guitar , pics , leads and peds ( if have any ) as i said amps are supplied and a spare lead free of charge will be loaned to you if you forget a lead , practice would be one evening a week for 4 hours ..... and thats about it any questions then feel free to ask and i will help out all i can .

BASSIST : basicly same as the guitarists really lol

DRUMMER : age range 18 - 25 , must know how to play double bass ( ok if you cant use double kick as not always nessasary ) , have own kit
( including sticks ) , must have a good year or
2's EXP , must have own transport or able to get to practice by bus
or train ( no cabs as they cost too much ) , chip-in's are reqired
( £5 per member for a 4 hour practice ) , only need to bring drum
sticks and double bass ped as kit is supplied unless gigging .

and i thik thats about it .

KEYBORDIST : aslong as you know how to play and you love metal then your basicly in as keys are very hard to find lol only prob is , is that you will have to bring full kit with all supplies as the studio doesnt own a keys set at all ( sorry ) oh and age range doesnt apply to a keys but it would help if your possably over the age of 18 to at the oldest .... 30 i think would cover it lol , also same applies to a keys player that own transport would be required ( sorry again )

ok now heres the hard part , all musicians must live in the areas of : ERITH , DARTFORD , SLADE GREEN , WOOLWICH , ELTHAM ,PLUMSTED , CRAYFORD ,
BEXLEYHEATH , WELLING , and places close to them .

Hi
We are looking for a dedicated rockabilly/rock n roll guitarist to come and play lead.
We are a 4 piece band (5 with a lead player), featuring upright bass, rythm guitar, drums and female lead singer (very much like Imelda May), but we need a Lead guitarist that knows and loves the music, so learning songs wont be a problem as you will already know of them!

Rockabilly lead guitar is a mixture of styles, mainly jazz, country boogie and up tempo blues, played on ideally a semi acoustic Gretsch (or similar) or a telecaster, in the style of people such as Chris Casello, Darryl Higham, Brain Setzer, Scotty Moore or Paul Birlison.
If you are intersted, we are trying to get our set together and have already played a couple of small gigs with more to come.  We are based in mid Kent (for rehearsal purposes) and are looking for enthusiasm and commitment.

I'm a long hair white bloke (mature!) in a regular gigging band doing rock/blues...but I have a hankering to put together a hendrix project...so I'm just putting out some feelers. Looking for 'mature' musicians- whether in other bands, whatever- who are reliable,have decent kit and a good set of ears/hands, know Hendrix pretty well and can look the part (up to a point- no wigs required!!!).

Initially get together for a rehearsal/jam to see if we're on the right page (Bromley rehearsal room, so you being in South East London or Kent would be useful)...if this has legs I'd like to gig this- I have access to PA/lights and some far out duds to wear too!
No rush- I'm pretty busy so don't expect instant gigs/money!

Singer required

We (bass, guitar and drums) are just forming a covers band, using slightly unusual, but well known, songs to form the basis of a set list. We won't be playing the songs straight but will be rocking them up a bit, changing the structure etc. to make them our own. We've got a really good chemistry together and may look to write our own songs once we've started gigging.

Songs we're rehearsing so far are
. Hungry like the Wolf - Duran Duran
. Together Forever - Rick Astley
. Bad Medicine - Bon Jovi
. Hey Micky  - 
. Call me - Blondie 
. The Power of Love - Huey Lewis and the News
. Rent - Pet Shop Boys
. The Universal - Blur
. SOS - Abba
There are some others that I can't remember off hand.

As you can see, it's quite a mix of songs, so the main requirement we're looking for is a sense of fun and a willingness to give it a go.
We're all male and between 26 & 36.

Pepperland is calling you

Hello people of Pepperland.

Sgt. Pepper here on a recruitment campaign to gather together a set of fine musicians to play the tunes of my four protégées - no, not Dirk, Stig, Nasty & Barry but John, Paul, George and Ringo.
How many of you can confess to being inspired to take up your musical instrument because of these four lads?

I was watching young Mr. McCartney's DVD "The Space between Us" and it occurred to me that all the songs of the "Fab-four" during their time in the band and their subsequent solo careers would provide a vast catalogue of tunes for any fine musicians to play to their hearts content. Songs that would tug the heart stings of the listener and would cause them to sing along to every word! I might even get you to learn a few ditties from the "Prefab-four" as well!

I don't want to recruit people who want to tell me about their gigging experience or about their flexi-watchamacallit-double-wobble-valve-top Amplification. If you have an instrument and you know how to play it - you'll do for me. If you can double on instruments (a little bit of rotation never hurt anyone) and you can sing - all the better! In fact - if you're gonna be one of the singers, you'll need to play an instrument. You won't need to look like any of the Fabs although a drummer with a big nose might be good :-) You won't even need to wear clothes akin to the lads either although a fine Pepper uniform might suit you "Suits you sir!"

Sgt. Pepper needs you! Do you fancy being part of The Lonely Hearts Club band? Then The Lonely Hearts Club Band needs you.
Get in touch. There is much fun to be had as well as much love oh and undoubtedly much friction. Alas good music is not borne without friction but let's ride the rollercoaster while we have the energy!

Who should apply? Guitarists, drummers, bassists, keyboardists/pianists - will even contemplate brass section (sax/trombone/trumpet). Naturally age and gender are irrelevant here although anyone less than 18 might need to get consent from an adult! Once I get enough interest, I'll get back in touch and arrange a "taster day" for all to come along and jam!

Don't put it off any longer. Be part of the next big wave in south east Kent

Lead Guitarist wanted

Hi. My name is Lee Thompson (36) and I am a singer/songwriter/guitarist looking for a lead guitarist to join my little outfit (currently myself, bassist and drummer). The music is largely acoustic based but certainly not constrained to that genre. I am currently working with another songwriter writing songs for my upcoming album which I plan to release later this year on a local label in Whitstable (RMS Records). I have most of the rhythm guitar parts covered but that extra magic a decent lead guitarist can bring to the party is required. Please note this is NOT an ad for seasoned professionals looking for session work. I want someone to join me for the long haul.

Ideally, someone close enough to Whitstable so we can get together without having to travel a million miles. The studio is based in Whitstable as well.
