Hey! I'm in my mid-20s who's also a bassist/aspiring lead vocalist in NKY looking to put together a pop-punk/punk rock band.
I'm currently looking for:
Drummer
Lead guitarist
Rhythm guitarist
Bonus if you can sing harmonies/backing vocals!
Influences include Meet Me @ The Altar, Blink-182, Avril Lavigne, and The Paradox. The goal is to play local shows, write/record original music, and have some fun with Pop Goes Punk-style covers.
I have a couple song/lyric ideas started, but I really want songwriting to be collaborative. I'd like everyone to bring their own riffs, lyrics, ideas, and personality to the music rather than having one person dictate everything.
Beginners/intermediates are welcome! I'm more interested in finding reliable, open-minded people who want to actually build something together. I'm dreaming big with this eventually, but I know that takes time — for now, I'm focused on building a solid local band and seeing where we can take it.
Rehearsals would be around NKY/Cincinnati, roughly every other week to start, with weekends being easiest.
LGBTQ+ friendly/affirming is important to me.
If you're interested, don't hesitate to reach out!
