First advertised last November, but having to re-advertise, we are still a (North Bristol/S Glos-based) wedding-stylee covers band with 4 strong voices sharing lead and backing duties, a guitarist, keysperson and a drumsmith, all with extensive gigging, studio and/or stage experience.
 
We were messed about over our final missing cog in the machine: bass.
Ideally not needing to travel TOO far for rehearsals in Westerleigh (to keep your fuel costs down, and save the planet just a little bit more), and who would be able to commit to a not-too-hectic schedule.
 
We only perform covers; a wide range of material - from disco pop to torch blues to electronica to acoustic folkesque to classic rock to waltzes/quicksteps to Glee-covered covers (yes, "That" journey one...)...

The ability to work out your own bass parts, or surf the 'net for tabs, or play by ear, would be pretty much essential. Your own backline and basses will be equally important to own, plus the ability to drive yourself into the wilds of S Glos on a regular basis...
 
Rehearsals are still every Wednesday evening, and any audition/meet-up would be on a Wednesday evening.
 
This is not a charity, we will be looking to take good money from every show we put on.
 
At this time we are booking gigs from June, and are developing a strong set list and very powerful vocal arrangements.

 
Contact: You have read this far, so you are intrigued....please feel free to send an email to seeking@eddiekibble.me.uk
 
Thanx for reading, we look forward to jamming with you.. :)

Rhythm guitarist (gigging experience) looking to join/form blues/rock covers band.
I've been a covers band for 2 years but now fancy a "change in direction".
My influences musically are Thin Lizzy, Black Crowes, Peter Green, T-Rex, Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart.
I'm 40 years old & play a Les Paul Eppiphone plus i like to do acoustic numbers too. I also have loads of song ideas for covering in a band environment.

Hi all,

I’m a 25 year old male Singer/Songwriter (play guitar) based in Bristol looking to either:

a)       Join an existing band in need of a singer

b)       Start an acoustic duo with another guitarist who preferably has backing vocal ability

I’ve got a fair bit of experience, been the front man in a couple of bands but been out of the game for a couple of years now and would really like to get back into it.  Got my own PA system, various guitar’s e.t.c.

Style I like to play is rock/indie with a bit of grunge thrown in the mix. Love melodies with a slightly heavy background.

If you’re interested I can send you an original track of mine so you can see what ya think! Hope to here from you soon.

Gargantuant need your heavy bottom licks! We're a metal/rock band who have just started gigging but are now bass-less. We currently rehearse one night a week in Bedminster.
We need someone to learn the current songs, help write new ones and generally join in with the mayhem and merriment. Oh…and we're not teenagers.

If you see this in time and are interested come and check out our last gig with the existing bass at The Thunderbolt in Totterdown on Friday 26th March.

If you can't make it get in touch and come down to our rehearsal room for a chat and a play.

Cheers

Guitar/Bass/Drums required Date of Advert: 18/3/2010

I am looking for musicians in the S.Glos/East Bristol interested in starting up a decent pub rock band (if you remember that as a genre you’ll know I mean the style of The Pirates, Dr Feelgood, moving into early Clash, Skids, TRB – I’m sure you get the idea).  This is a start up project; the idea being to get few pub gigs when ready.  The mindset is very much the 70’s punk DIY ethos; three chords will do!

I am a mid/late forties guitarist with some reasonable gear and I have been playing for five years.  I also have a bass and so I am prepared to take that role.  I know my way around the fretboard but I have NO live band experience (apart from few auditions and try-outs that just didn’t work out).  I also work shifts so I have everything going against me!  I am looking for a drummer, guitarist, singer and bassist who, like me, need to start playing with other musicians.  We'll need to find rehearsal space and may need to pay a few quid each for that. No band experience necessary, but if you are an experienced musician and want to help get things going, please do get in touch.

Talented, recently formed rock/funk covers band situated around the Bath area require a rhythm guitarist with an ability to sing backing vocals to complete the line up. We play a diverse mix of Chilli Peppers/Stevie Wonder/Prince/Muse with occasional Bowie/REM Roxy Music tracks thrown in. Neanderthal 'classic rock' we aint!
We have no age limit but someone with a few miles on the clock (we're all in our forties) would probably slot in well.
Our aim is to be gigging by the summer, our goal is to be 'not just another pub band'.
Egotists need not apply, also we prefer enthusiasm over obsession.
This is a band that believes in fun.

Love Acid Jazz, like Brand New Heavies, Incognito, Jamiroquai  but also love Acoustic sounds  like Sheryl Crow, Texas (in the old days),  Dixie Chicks, Corrine Bailey Rae (put your records on) etc.
I have a great voice, can put my own style into songs, can harmonize and sing backing. I haven't got band experience but I have experience in some one-off gigs in Country, Show Girl and Jazz styles.
Would love to find a band to gig with in pubs/clubs but I have a young family so music isn't my 1st commitment anymore.

If there is a band out there, who are in their mid-late 30's, 
understand family commitments, but still get together to gig once/twice a month, and are looking for a female singer then please email me!!! :-)

Looking 1. a decent drummer
           2. one bassist or lead guitarist
I and a freind are currently losely jamming but I am now ready to get much more serious about music. I am 22 years old and have about seven songs and are designed to be angry and offensive to imbociles who know nothing of rock music. My lyrics are intelligent and played with emotion but not at all soppy, maybe a little self defeating and expressive but also angry and good.

What I need are musicians to develop with that like decent rock music. I am primarily into metal, grunge, good punk and heavy rock such as Black Label Society, Metallica, Megadeth, Pearl Jam, Rage, Muse, Clash whatever etc. amoungst other music.

Let me know if you are interested in forming a band, I have a guitar/bass player already who doesn't mind which he plays. Also if you enjoying yourself and have a sense of humour we will blatently get on.

Should be up for getting wasted.

We are currently a very experienced, talented trio comprising guitarist/vocalist, drummer/backing vocalist and bassist, all in our 40's , who are looking to play primarily our own songs.  We have a lot of material to work on and are based around the Bath/Frome/Midsomer Norton area. We have all played in many bands previously and have a great chemistry, but just need that fourth member who can take on most of the lead vocals and also play some keyboards or guitar when needed to add texture and colour to our sound.
 
Initially we plan to record a basic demo, set up a website and play selected music venues in the Bath/Bristol/Somerset area.  We have good contacts and the aim is to secure some local festival slots and support slots for signed bands.  We are realistic and all have jobs, but are also serious and passionate about music and want to achieve as much as we can whilst enjoying playing.
 
Our influences are varied (Cream, Jeff Beck, Van Halen, Stevie Wonder, Radiohead, Jaco Pastorius, Chick Corea, Tower of Power, Led Zeppelin, Pearl Jam, The Who, Rush, to name but a few) with the general common theme being bands who are creative and can play, whilst keeping a groove as much as possible.

We are looking for a singer for a fun and relaxed collaborative recording project.  A range of styles covered that would sit comfortably under the banner                    “modern rock and whatever else we feel like doing”, and if you play an instrument, even better !!! .

I'm a singer of both traditional folk and self-penned songs, both acapella and with a couple of folk bands in the past. I'm looking for a guitarist (and/or fiddler, cellist, pianist) to arrange and perform some new songs I've just written, as well as a few of the rather haunting traditional songs I love to do.

If you're interested, or you know someone who might be, please get in touch.
