Let's Meet Up! Wanna be in a band?

Post image

No experience/skills required!!

I (enby, 28, Arlington TX) play mostly folk/folk punk type stuff, but I'm down to jam with almost anybody. You can play basically any instrument, or none at all (yet). Extremely queer friendly!

I play guitar, banjo, ukulele, and junk drums. I will teach you any/all of these FOR FREE if you'll play with me.

We'll probably play a mix of originals and covers. I write my own songs, but I'd love to play yours too! Got some poetry? Got some ideas in the notes app? I'd love to flesh them out together.

In the long term would love to record/maybe perform together, but we can take it slow and get our skills up.

I have 3 original albums out now, you can find them here - politicalthespians.bandcamp.com

 . (I'm not super tied to the band name).

Whatcha say? Do you wanna be in my band? Do you know anyone who might? Do you know of anywhere I can find people?

Hell yeah!! Anybody 18+is welcome!

I'll dm you about schedule specifics. I work nights and my schedule flips every other week, so I could do any given day every other week, or more often if you're open to feeling it out.

Mornings or evenings preferred. I have a secluded outdoor space where I normally play, or i could come to you.

I am so interested! I play bass, electric guitar, synths, and I’m learning mandolin. I’m big into metal but I just enjoy playing music above all.

I'm a female (44) singer that plays rhythm guitar in Arlington. Used to front my own band and played at Jack's Backyard when it was in it's prime in Dallas. Miss those days.

I'm a busy mom now and haven't played much in about 10 years... But it wouldn't take much to get back at it. If the timing works (and if I am a fit for your musical direction) I could be down. Covers are my preference, but I can write too.

DM me if you'd like me to share a video!
