    I don't have a band..
    I just kind of write songs & sing them to myself... & my nephew.
    Everyone tells me I should be in a band & trying to get myself heard.. Not so fond of that idea actually.
    I'd love to learn the guitar. Every time I tune mine, the last string jumps back out of tune.

    I'm in an a cappella group, does that count? :D

    No really though, I've been singing forever and now I direct an all-female a cappella "band". I'm also in the process of learning keyboard and guitar. My boyfriend has asked me to join his band once I get good at keyboard, so I'm looking forward to that!

    Our band is called "A Avenue" and we do primarily rock covers (classic/modern/alt) but also have about 10 originals we're hoping to get recorded sometime soon! It's such a blast traveling and entertaining, just wish there wasn't a shortage on bass players! We always need a new one every year or so!

    I play electric, acoustic and classical guitar and sing in a two-member folk rock parody band lol...kind of a Flight of the Conchords cover band though my bandmate has been working on original material for us :)

    P.S. I'm double majoring in journalism and music and would, one day, like to teach music, either instrumental, voice or it's history.

    I'm probably not the first to think this, but we should create some tracks for a MFP Collaboration?

    HELL YEA!

    My name is Zach and I am definitely a musician! I am a vocalist, in all aspects of the term, I can sing, rap, and do death metal vocals. I also can play drums and guitar! I love music with everything in me and it keeps me going on a daily basis. I am in 1 band that may not spark many of yall's interest because its death metal/deathcore but, we are called Commotio Cordis. We are signed to an independent label called Swimming With Sharks Records and we have a 5 song EP released for download on the web. I hope you all check us out and if you dig the tunes thats great!

    Anyone feel free to add me for support in their weightloss and musical journeys! :D

    I am heavily influenced by baroque/classical, with my favourite genres of music being neoclassical / progressive / death metal.

    I play guitar. I am not in a band now, but I was in a garage rock band in high school. We played Metallica, Slayer, and Rob Zombie covers and wrote some of our stuff. After high school and everyone went to different colleges, that was the end of that. But I still play my guitars in my house.

    I got involved in a bet which involved me learning how to play bass and forming a band for a laugh which kept on... so here is the band of which I sing and play bass for (3 vocalists total, so not all me)

    I'm a musician ( piano / violin / guitar / drums / vocals ). I also teach piano and violin for a living and love it :)

    I was in a band for three years, but I haven't been playing with them for about a year now.
    I recorded keys, violin and backup vocals on the first two CDs, and a little keys on the most recent album (even though I left the band months before recording).
