hey
NoVA native looking to start a punk-inflected band that draws Otis Redding, Amy Winehouse, and X-Ray Spex, with a slight affection towards ballads. I play guitar and write songs, just like every other jackass out there, songs having to do with trans/gender shit, suicide ideation, missing people, and, idk, other stuff.
I’m lookin fer a bassist, a drummer, and a saxophone player.. If another guitar player or a keyboard player wanted to also play around, couldn’t hurt. Obv not looking for any racist, homophobic, transphobic, or otherwise fucked up people.
Now, that^ sounds like it’s all, like, dumb “oh look I’m big shit I’m just looking for a back up band,” but really, if there’s just anybody with remotely similar interests, I’d like to play music with ya. I used to go to shows a lot, then spent a few years out of the scene, owed partially to being in college states away, then came back and, save a few good friends, and familiarity with the big mainstays of DC punk in its different forms, like TMLE/Spoonboy or Coke Bust, I don’t exactly know too much of what’s going on. A few awesome shows at the Rocketship, but that’s about all.
Do you wanna play music together? I’d be stoked to, regardless of who’s “””in control””” or whatever.
Also, I realize, given the musical influences I listed above, the hardcore forum was probably not the ideal place to post, but this is the only message board affiliated with DC punk that I know of and figured that a lot of you probably don’t listen to/play ONLY hardcore, so what the hell, but if any of y’all know a message board that would make more sense to post this on, let me know.
