Forming a KGLW tribute band

Guitarist/vocalist seeking weirdos interested in forming tribute to the great King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. The cult level following makes this a perfect group for a tribute act! Covering this band will be as easy or as difficult as we'd want it to be, I would love to find people willing and able to cover the metal/prog material but it's not necessary!

I'm gtr/vox in this video just to prove I'm breathing, capable and can do time signature switches! https://youtu.be/vLMUWMa_LsU?si=iPJWxvY2ZuYV6fQY

Drummer looking for band🥂

I’m open to genres and different kinds of projects. I have some experience recording, playing live, and have been in bands. I’m 28 looking to play with other 20’s-30’s people that are really passionate, have a space to play in, and wanna record/play shows.

I’ve played with really cool people and have made great friends from the area’s scene and I’d love to find a mix of people that totally click musically, personality wise, etc.

Feel free to dm me with watcha working on/what your aspirations are and I’ll send yah recordings and stuff on my end as well.

Bands that inspire me: The Strokes, Incubus, Hum, The Police, Radiohead, etc. I love the 90’s grunge, trip hop, dnb, electronic, punk etc etc scenes

Thanks!

Recently moved to Portland - thought I'd share a few songs. :)

I'm waiting to publish these for when I have a full album's worth, but everyone sharing their music on this sub has inspired me to share early.

I'm not sure if Reddit will let me link to drop box files but I'll give it a shot:

Indie Music Booking Agent Recommendations

Hi :) my band Fern Spores has played approx 100 shows in the year and a half since forming, we booked these all independently and are looking into getting a booking agent. We would like to focus on festivals and regional tours for 2025. We recently released our debut album, are active on social media, have good merch, have solid gear, and are enthusiastically motivated. We are unsigned and exist within the "folk rock" and "roots rock" genres. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!

Drummer looking for screamo/hardcore

Hey PDX music community - I’m a drummer who plays in an alt band but I’m looking to also explore the more emo/hardcore and numetal sound that I love.

My influences range from William Bonney, Sicada, Gatherers, Dikembe, Novely, I want to create gut-wrenching emotional experiences that get people to feel something deep in their core and shakes the consecration of their being. Like a howling wolf crying to the moon after losing her cubs Romulus and Remus. I want this shit going absolutely bezerk in the girl next doors basement.

I’m 32 have a 24/7 practice space and can devote 2 days a week. If this sounds like a rawdoggin good time text me 971-666-0098.

Looking for something to listen to? My new album "Country Songs for Sad Communists" just came out.

It's streaming everywhere (except Amazon, they know what they did). It's an album about a fleeting sense of place, the trials of late capitalism, snowy nostalgia, information overload, philosophical thought experiments, climate change, and maple syrup.

Maybe more folk than country. Maybe more sad than communist. Hope you enjoy either way.

Catch me at 13th Moon Gravity Well on November 15th, and Rose City Guitar Co. on December 21st.

Bassist looking to make your band or project better.

I'm experienced, have transportation, gear, no kids (so I have availability) and a good hang. l' practice and leave or stick around and have some laughs; whatever you want. I am looking for a band (or players) that understand what playing tight, cohesive material is all about. Genre doesn't matter.

Moda center GA questions

Hi everyone, me and my friend will be attending the Billie eillish concert in December in Portland, OR, and was wondering how the whole get there early for general admission works? I know you can start lining up at 8am there, but I also heard they give you a wrist band or something at like 11am and then you can leave and come back at a certain time? Idk if that’s true but I’ve heard a couple people say that about other venues. If anyone knows where you start lining up at 8am or any other info please let me know!

Can you recommend (or are you one yourself) a Portland music producer? (“indie acoustic singer-songwriter” genre)

Hi. I am a very small-time artist here in Portland. At this time, I’m just looking to work with a local producer on one track. I already have a recording I’d like to use, but it needs mixing/mastering/etc. I’m totally willing to compensate someone and would not offend anyone by asking them to work for free. If you want to pitch your services, feel free to leave a comment or dm/chat with me. I’d prefer to work with someone who has some experience in this rough genre area before.

Influences: Sufjan Stevens, Edward Sharpe, Ben Gibbard, Famy, Pat the Bunny, Matt Maeson, sapientdream/B0RNS (“Past Lives”), etc
