If anyone is looking to get into the holiday spirit, The Alliance has a show coming up this Saturday! We are an all voices chorus focused on sharing our music and inclusive fellowship in Central Ohio.

I don’t know if there’s much of a sludge scene here but I’ve been getting into it lately and I’d like to watch some local bands (if they exist).

Thank you guys for all the suggestions, l’ll definitely have to look into them!

I don't know if this is this the right place for this, but im searching for a European metal band that played at Newport a few years ago like 2021. I can't remember the name, but I do know they had a song on the radio at one point. Thanks for your help!

If I had never played in front of everyone and I got the courage to humiliate myself in front of others, where do you think would be the most inviting for an open mic situation? Playing rock music if that matters.

Seeking people to play with between 10:00-13:00ish (somewhere in that window) Tuesdays-Fridays (somewhere in that window).

I'm retired, have kids. Can play after I drop off to school and before I pick them up.

We can talk on Discord, text, whatever before-hand if you want to vibe-check.

I mostly enjoy Rock from the mid-80s to the mid-00s.

I regularly play music from these bands (listed under the decade title in no particular order):

80s:

Metallica

Megadeth

Anthrax

Bon Jovi

Fleetwood Mac (Okay, maybe they're a bit '70s too!)

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

etc.

90s:

Pantera

Nirvana

Alice in Chains

Stone Temple Pilots

Red Hot Chili Peppers

Bush

System of a Down

The Offspring

Green Day

Pearl Jam

Disturbed

No Doubt

etc.

00's:

blink-182

Sum 41

Jimmy Eat World

Foo Fighters

Silversun Pickups

30 Seconds to Mars

Killswitch Engage

etc.

I'm currently challenging myself with several songs from Bullet For My Valentine, Avenged Sevenfold, and Slipknot. They push my limits.

I've never played with a group - I'd love to. I would consider myself an Intermediate drummer. I'm good, but I'm self-taught.

I'm going to be taking lessons next Spring (I want to learn the type of stuff kids learn in Band class at school, or in a marching band). I'll also be investing in microphones and cameras, I want to be able to record and listen back and to be able to put some samples on YouTube.

Curious what you all think about this.

Hi, are there any advanced/expert trumpet players in greater Cbus who would like to join a rock band? All original music. Influences include The Police, Blondie, 80s/90s college rock, etc.

Bonus points if said trumpet player can also sing a little and play simple keyboard lines or aux percussion during songs/parts that don’t necessarily need trumpet.

Sorry to be a wet blanket, but no bigots or zealots.

Thanks for reading!

Ive taken guitar lessons previously a few years ago, I'm looking for a trans friendly teacher and having a hard time finding like any indication of trans friendly places. So my main priority is someone who is trans friendly.

Hey y'all! Newly formed cover band (no name yet, generational rock) looking for a fun, solid drummer.

We have a set list started with the likes of Foo Fighters, John Denver, Johnny Cash, Weezer...to name some influences.

Sunday's have been our go to practice day. We have a nice practice place, with PA & an electric drum set.

We're in our 40's & 50's & have vocals, 3 guitars, & bass. Hope to hear from you!

Hi! I'm looking for a drummer for my weird sasscore-esque band Coffin Makers. We already have an e.p. we just released. If you're into: Blood Brothers Black Dice Some Girls These arms are snakes Heavy Heavy Low Low Daughters (canceled I know but you know what they sound like) Chat Pile Model/Actriz The Jesus Lizard

We practice once to twice a week after 830pm. Looking for a drummer that can play dancy stuff and fast punk blasty stuff. We have a gimmick where the band dresses up as Mormon-esque missionaries and the vocalist is a street corner preacher so participating in the bit is a must. This is a project that plans to play out and do some weekend runs and maybe a few 5-7 day runs a year. Also no racists/bigots/terfs

Below you'll find the e.p. and our contact email! If this sounds like you hit us up!

I am looking to connect with some musicians around here in Columbus, OH. My passion is songwriting, and I need to find some quality musicians in order to write with, and possibly put a 3 to 4 song demo together. And then maybe shop it around to obtain a Songwriting Publishing deal. My music that I write is more so in the old school R&B, Rock, Pop, and Country genres. Do you all know of any producers around here who specialize in these genres?

A Cure for Love’s new single “Sunbleached” comes out August 8th. You can save it at the link below.

Hey everyone!

I play in a Chicago based indie band and we were wondering what the best venues (bars, DIY, house shows) are to play in Columbus. Any suggestions very welcome. Happy to help you book a show here too.

We’re into Alvvays, Pavement, Courtney Barnett, Tame Impala, etc.
