Calling All Serious Musicians!

[blackmetal_bear]

I am looking to put together a band. Mostly death metal, with black and symphonic metal influences. Looking for people in the Upstate New York area. I live in Norwich, about an hour north of Binghamton. The surrounding area is included, i.e: Northern New York, Pennsylvania, Canada, etc, but you would have to be willing to work something out with me. If you have the technical capabilities, we can collaborate via the net until further arrangements can be made, or whatever.

I will need two guitarists; at least one who can solo, a bassist, a drummer and a keyboard player. I'll be doing vocals, but can double as a bassist if necessary.

I write music for guitar, bass, keys and some drums. I already have a cache of songs written, so we could immediately get \into playing as soon as I teach you the songs, or we come up with something on our own.

Serious inquiries only, your own gear is necessary, as I only own a guitar, keyboard and a couple microphones. You will need your own transportation as well, since I do not have a car. Ability to write your own music and/or lyrics is a plus.

Band members encouraged to go by pseudonyms, for example, your Fursona's name.

Band name still pending.

Man, I wish I lived in the area, haha. I know, this is a pointless response, but I still think it's pretty cool the genre you're treking for. (I could've totally played keyboard/drums... )
And you're a songwriter which is really sweet. Good luck on the search!

Well I'm not too far away, but I sing and play trumpet. Not sure if you could use that, but hey, I'll put it out there.

[blackmetal_bear]

Maybe, I'd have to think about it. Where are you located?

[Arke]

Near the Canadian bridge crossing at Ogdensburg, a few miles south. I'll leave it at that, for the time being.

Refreshing my own topic so hopefully more people will see it.

Yep, so, awesome!

I'd love to jam with you, man, but I'm in Toronto
