I;ve played guitar for over 40 years (since I was 8). I like to play rock and punk but used to play acoustic folk. I have played drums off and on since I was 10 (39 years) , and I have played bass since I was 18 (31 years). So I have a few skills.
I am in the process of learning mandolin and banjo. I like to play hard rock or punk but want to play some irish drinking music or bluegrass on the side
Can't sing on key. It's too bad because I have great ideas for melodies but I just can't hit the notes. Maybe I will take some lessons and see if there is hope0 -
I love music and performing! I play by ear but also read music. All self taught...
Piano: 22 years
Drums: 15+ years
Guitar: 11 years
Throw in bass, harmonica, a little accordion, and that pretty much sums it up!
I'm a drummer at heart, but would love to play piano for a talented chick singer. My heart melts for female vocals.0 -
do you play any? for how long? skill level? recreational or professional? genre(s)? influences?
I play some. I've played guitar for about 16 years and I sing as well. I'm good, but I haven't had much time to practice, due to working full-time, going to school part-time and working out. I also live in an apt complex, so I can't really rock out too hard. I almost went to Berklee College of Music, but I decided not to. I did a summer program with them about 9 years ago. I play recreationally, but I would love to start a band. I don't know what genre I'd consider the music I play and write. I listen to a lot of punk, indie, classic rock, alt rock, progressive, etc. I recently started playing ukulele and that has been a lot of fun. I also dabble with bass, drums, and keyboard.
So when are we starting a band?0 -

Amateur guitarist, singer, and pianist. I don't get the time to practice much, my roommates don't appreciate it.

Guitar - 20+ years - Professional level
Sing - Main vocals - 5 nights a week for 5 years
Keyboards - amateur (only to record for myself (dubstep))
Bass Guitar - Professional (used to switch with bass player on stage for a set to confuse the audience)
Played mainly classic rock, blues, and a little country. If I got payed I played it. my main influences would be SRV, Joe Satriani, and David Gilmore.0 -
Bassist for 6 year .... Mostly by myself. Great for stress. I stick to jazz, blues and funk mostly.0
-
Flute (15 yrs) and piccolo player (12 yrs)
Recorder (sopranino-alto, 4 yrs)
Piano (-25 yrs) (I'm awful. I learned enough to pass piano proficiency in college and promptly forgot all of it)
(Soon to play) Ukulele as I heard Santa is bringing me one for Christmas...

Greetings everyone. I have been playing guitar for roughly 16 years and bass for roughly 15 years. I have played bass for two metal bands when I lived in Arizona. When I get enough money saved up, i'm planning on getting more equipment and hopefully can start jamming with other musicians.
I currently own/play four electric guitars (all of them are 6 stringers) and two electric basses (one 4 string and one 5 string).
The main people who influenced me on guitar are: James Hetfield (Metallica), Dimebag Darrell, Scott Ian (Anthrax), Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), Kerry King (Slayer), and Max Cavalera (Sepultura/Soulfly/Cavalera Conspiracy).
The main people who influenced me on bass are: Les Claypool (Primus), Jason Newsted, Cliff Burton, Frank Bello (Anthrax), Dusty Hill (ZZ Top), & Alex Webster (Cannibal Corpse).0 -
I've played oboe for 14 years and teach privately. I teach K-8 general music. While oboe is my primary I have all played flute for 12 years and have dabbled in all the woodwinds. Being a instrumental music education major pretty much forced you to at least have the basic understanding of everything. Jack of all trades, master of none. I also have my black belt in recorder karate... but seeing as I chose the leveling pieces it is not that much of an accomplishment. :-)
Always looking for musical friends, so feel free to add me!!0 -
Hello, I have played Guitar for about 25 years0

hello,
i've played guitar for about 16 yrs.
a friend taught me several chords, then learned on my own from there.
i play regularly for my church.
i've also played out and about (coffee houses, other venues).
i like to play from simple and soft to fast and loud!!
genres: indie/alternative rock.
i've messed more with effects the last several years. it's been interesting...0 -
I sing
I would say my skill level is pretty well developed, though I no longer perform so it is dwindling. I used to do classical voice and jazz but now I do karaoke with a beer in my hand haha.
My husband is a jack of al trades musician though. He is amazingly talented. His site is www.theprivatenotion.com if anyone is interested in hearing a new artist. In his single Sad Days he is playing everything and also resorded it by himself. However, he is also great at beer-karaoke 0 -

I'm a drummer to the core (since 2001ish), but because of my living arrangements, I can't have a kit right now. So I picked the guitar back up. I had tried to teach myself around 2003 and got okay at it. Working on powerchords and such now, but I have to admit.... my heart still belongs to the drums. There's a kit that's open to the public I go and bang on every once in a while - every time I come out of that room feeling like I just paid for sex. All the feelings of post coitus are there, sans the payment and STD parts. But I still feel cheap cause it's a very used abused set lol. Annnnywhooo...
Hopefully I'll continue getting better at the guitar (acoustic) because I find acoustic guitar very soothing and hugging the guitar feels good to me. I'm also typically fidgetty with my fingers so it's helped me calm down several times just by doing scales.
I sing some and sound alright. I'd like to sing and play the guitar - just because that looks really cool. And I play around with harmonicas now and then.0 -
I've been playing guitar for about 4 years now and I've played piano for about 12, but never really buckled down and learned much on the piano. In the past year I got a new piano and I've really progressed myself in that finally! I also sing. I'm a self taught musician and do it recreationally, but hopefully one day it'll be more than that 0

Vocals. Always sang, longer than I remember. More recently, joined a band last year as it was always something I wanted to do. Now performing once a week or so at open mics, our own gigs and at the university!0

Played guitar for 18 years now but these days I'm more of a singer. Passed my grade 5 vocals and grade 5 music theory just before Christmas.
Have played in bands over the years and am currently starting one with me as the singer for the 1st time.

Hi Everyone,
Glad to find a group I can relate to. I have been playing piano for 42 years, since I was 5. I majored in music education in college, but have only taught piano lessons with that degree. About 10 years ago, I took up the harp. I am married to a fabulous guitar player. The fun of our relationship is that he plays by ear and I play mostly by music, so we push each other out of our comfort zones all the time:)
Somehow I ended up as a church music director, lol. Trying to lead a choir and I am not much of a singer. I play in a trio: harp, harp guitar and cello which is too much fun! Play lots of events and stuff like that.

I started off playing the clarinet when I was 10, switched to the oboe when I was 12, and have been playing ever since (I'm almost 24). I also sing soprano/mezzo. Went to school for music ed as an oboe major/voice minor. I play in two community bands and am starting up a woodwind quintet with members from one of those bands. Love, love, love music!0

Bagpiper here. Though I've heard them all my life as my cousins pipe as well, I picked them up in earnest maybe 20 years ago. Now I do mostly solo gigs but also compete wtih a band. Did a couple performances on stage with The Chieftains. Our band competed at the World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow a few years ago and made the prize list, which was a thrill. Hoping to head back to Scotland again next year to compete again.0
