Forming a Houston Chant Band
Needed:
I moved here from Los Angeles where I was very active in the chant circuit touring with both Krishna Das and Dave Stringer and others for many years. I been living here for a few years and the chant scene in Houston is almost non-existent. I think that it's time that Houston had its own rockin chant band. This is going to be a non-religious spirit filled group, so leave your dogma at the door. All are welcome: Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Atheist, and the confused. Just don't be confused about your love of sound and love of people. I'm looking for people who love to play music and feel that music is the vehicle that connects them with others and something bigger. If you have any questions, please send me an email at allen.astin@gmail.com. The chants and music are fairly simple to learn.
I play a percussion instrument from South India called a mridangam and I'm looking for a practice space in the 1960 and I-45 area. I don't need a lot of room and I would like 24 hour access. Any suggestions?
ATTENTION WORKING MUSICIANS: Rhythm section (bass player and drummer) available for hire for 80's, Buzz, classic rock/blues, scenarios. We have pro experience, attitude, gear as well as know a large catalogue of songs and work well together. We are not looking to start a band. If you have the gigs booked, are in need of temporary/permanent, short term/long solution to personnel issues, we supply the solid groove, you just sing and play. We are professional, reliable and we play well with others. If interested, please reply to bassmanjoe90@yahoo.com or call 713-540-1327. [10/23/2007]
Drumming Drum Drums Punk Metal Grunge Hardcore (Southeast; Pasadena)
I'm a drummer seeking other drummers who are willing to help me improve. Any advice is appreciated. Maybe we can set up two kits and do practice workshops. I've been playing for about a year and I'm easy to get along with. I'm open minded so you don't have to be afraid to reply to this ad. I like all kinds of music, but for my own style I'm shooting for a more aggrorock sound. I don't have a double kick pedal yet, but one day, when I'm not so broke, I'll get one. I have a basic kit.
Here's some bands that have impressed me: Shellac, Sleater Kinney, Dead Kennedys, Propaghandi, Fugazi, The Melvins, System of a Down, Rambo, Pretty Little Flower, Don Caballero, Mastadon, Rage Against the Machine, Slayer, Kreator, Dimmu Borgir; you get the idea: loud, fascinating, and brazen.

BASSIST NEEDED (The Jesus Lizard, Botch, Frodus, Refused, Breather Resist, etc.)
We're currently a 3-piece (vocals, guitar, drums) looking for a good bassist who "gets" what we do. That means if you're looking to play straight-up metal, then you might as well move along. We want someone whose playing style is a good balance of riffing and pocket playing, with big, gnarly overdriven tone. If you're familiar with Brian Cook (Botch, These Arms Are Snakes) or Caleb Scofield (Cave In, Old Man Gloom, Zozobra), then you have a good idea of what I mean. You MUST have your own decent gear (that means no Crate practice amps) and transportation. We're working on getting a permanent practice space, but if you have one then that's even better. Ideally we'd like to practice as much as 4 times a week, minimum of 2. We have a show lined up for November 9th with Young Widows, so the sooner we find somebody the better.
DRUMMER NEEDED-THE POLICE TRIBUTE BAND. Bassist/Singer & Guitarist in search of talented drummer with a variety of styles for POLICE TRIBUTE BAND.

Our intentions go beyond “tribute band”; ultimate goal is writing original material with a power trio/ reggae/ funk feel. Have gigs lined up already. We are serious musicians with serious intentions. Been together for a few months, just parted ways with our talented drummer…we expect complete professionalism and responsibility. Good Money.
DRUMMER NEEDED-RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS tribute band. Singer, guitarist and bassist for RED HOT CHILI PEPPER tribute band in search for a drummer. Just when you think you got one, you realize you don’t. Been together for 4+ years. Plenty of shows under our belts. Good money, steady gigs. We have traveled to all parts of Texas: Austin, San Antonio, San Marcos, Beaumont to name a few. Recently played at Fiesta San Antonio this past April. The Concert Pub in Houston is a steady gig for us. Venues played: Scout Bar, Engine Room, Warehouse Live, Concert Pub…and many dives, pool halls and small bars. Serious band, serious intentions, complete professionalism. We are currently working on originals until drummer is found; “Honest Charlie” is the name of our original band and hopefully you (potential drummer) would be interested in that band as well, but if not no worries. I myself (bass player) am also in a Police Tribute band who is also looking for a drummer. In interested in Police Tribute please respond to this same add. Auditions will be held in Pasadena.
$85 for a LIKE-NEW DW-5000AD3 PEDAL
I took way too much care of this pedal. Yes, I played very little, but I babied it more and kept it very clean... This beast of a tool can take way more abuse than I was willing to give to it. The most reliable single pedal on the market, DW, period. At GC or any other drumshop, you will pay $170.00 for a new one. This one, well kept like new by a very anal owner, is yours for only $85.00 (half!), and comes with its own nylon carrying case. Pedal is less than two years old, but I can probably count with my hands the number of times I've used it... 713-408-8121 or carmine_73@hotmail.com

BASS PLAYER POSSIBLY LOOKING FOR BAND.
I'm 26 years old, been playing guitar/bass since 1993. At one point I'd say I was pretty damn good, but since I haven't played in awhile I'd say my skill level is intermediate. I'm new to town, miss being a part of local music, and I might be looking for a band to jam with. I like all styles, and I've played in punk, ska, metal, indie/rock arthouse, and jazz bands since I started playing out in 97. For me it's the people who make the difference. I'm more interested in finding some cool people and having a good time than anything else. On the same hand, please don't respond if you are a cynic, drug addict, control freak, polotical revolutionary, have anger issues, or have any other personality trait that goes against having a good time. I'm only in it for fun.
If you're still interested, drop me a line at 2sweet2besoured@gmail.com.

We are hoping the keyboards will add that beneficial extra layer we are looking for. We all have 9 to 5 jobs but ultimately we are very much looking to push this band and see how far we can make it go. If interested, send us a message and we'll see what what happens. Serious inquirys only, with own transpertation and equipnment prefered.

If interested send me a line at drum.dr@hotmail.com
* * THE PROFESSIONAL DRUMMER AVAILABLE FOR COVER BANDS * *
I am dependable, professional, and knowledgeable. No big ego; I am a quiet man who lets the drumming do the talking. No fancy out-of-place unnecessary super-chops, no drama. Nothing to prove that way, no pressure man. However, you will get a very solid, very entertaining, energetic and ever-present drummer behind you on stage, who you will not have to worry about. You can bet your band’s sound will be enhanced and you will feel comfortable with me fast. Of course, I feel confident with you (the hiring band) being the judge of that.
I know it is not necessary to rehearse all the time in a cover band. (An experienced, seasoned musician should know most popular covers, and/or can easily learn them through an audio CD.) Like most people, I do have a day job, therefore very minimal rehearsal is perfect (& preferred). However, rest assured I am 100% solid, well-timed, reliable, and professional for the band & audience when I’m on stage.
Due to my jobs, I am available for fill-in work, ((or permanent part-time)) on Friday's only.

***BASSIST NEEDED for Original Band***
THE POLICE tribute band needs GUITARIST & DRUMMER
At this moment, everything is negotiable. From where we practice, to where we play. The money will be split evenly (three ways)--and when you are getting paid big bucks, a three-way split is very nice. Covering other material is an option, but from my experience, it's easier to sell a tribute band than a cover band--ok now I'm babbling.
I have everything needed except for PA (which I plan to get very soon). Gear currently owned: Drumset, bass rig & basses, guitar rig & guitars (all of good quality (especially my guitars)).
All I need is two guys that can rip on their instruments and are willing to put the time and effort needed for a tribute band. The first phase is the only hard phase, after learning the songs--it's easy money!
e-mail: supergabe2001@hotmail.com
RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS tribute band needs DRUMMER.
On a side note: Honest Charlie is our "original" band. We have several "original songs" that we are currently working on and depending on the chemistry, the new drummer may very well be a part of it, if he chooses to be part of it.
Practice would be either in Dayton (Very north-east part of town) or Pasadena (east-side)
Whoever is thinking about auditioning please bear in mind with the utmost sincerity: We are a very serious band with very serious intentions. We do travel out of town often. WE do split all money evenly or we don't split it at all (for a collective band purpose). ZERO-TOLERANCE for flakes. We all have things to take care of outside of the band -- but we hold the band very high in our priorities.

Clear Lake area guitarist looking to start something new. I'm interested in meeting others who's passion is music, first and foremost, and that are looking to start a band or complete one.
Here's some background info on myself: I'm 25 years old. I've been playing guitar off and on for around 7 years. Some of my favorite bands include: Alter Bridge, Incubus, Staind, Creed, Green Day, Bush (first few albums), Trivium, and Pearl Jam just to name a few. My favorite style to play (and write songs) is heavy rock, with some metal thrown in and even some slow songs occasionally. I love heavy distorted chords and heavy rock riffs.
What I'm looking for: First and foremost, no drama, no egos, and no drugs. People in or around the Clear Lake area. People that are easy to get along with, and that understand becoming great is not an overnight acheivement. People interested in the same style of music that want to create original songs. People who don't have delusions of granduer about their band being a nationwide name, but rather focus on developing from within and seeing what happens.
My equipment: I play an Epiphone SG through a B-52 all tube head with a Behringer 4x12 slanted cab. Have a few pedals, but rely mostly on my amp head for my sound. Also have several practice amps for use in more "noise-free" areas.
If this sounds interesting to anyone, please feel free to email me at eggbert_the_great@yahoo.com
Rock on Houston!
** LEAD Guitarist needed **
Recent experimentation with a second guitar in the band has led us to want to add a lead guitarist full time.
We're in search of a lead guitarist or multi-instramentalist (i.e. lead guitar plus backing vox & keys, etc.). The idea is to either find a great lead guitarist or someone that is skilled & flexible enough to change instruments depending on the song. Check out our Myspace page at www.Myspace.com/OSIRUSband and www.OSIRUS.cc for more general info., songs, etc.
Contact us at OSIRUS@OSIRUSmusic.com.
Thanks!
We are a rock band, that wants to rock, period. We need a pro drummer.We play all originals and we have influences like Iron Maiden, Social Distortion, Pearl Jam, Rata Blanca, etc, and we are all between 18-22, blah blah blah. We need someone who just wants to rock as well, we have some shows coming up so we need someone quickly. Call 832 623 5023 or email zaktomic@yahoo.com [3/22/2007]
Lead Guitarist (Blues/Rock Stylist) Needed ASAP
We are a Far North Houston original project band. We are a complete band but just lost our lead guitar player to personal issues.
We have TWO original albums written and need immediate replacement. Our ideal lead guitarist should be a natural blend of Santana, David Gilmour and Stevie Ray Vaughan. If you are a Natural Blues Rock stylist we need to talk ASAP.
We ARE NOT a blues band, but our music employs the blues rock style. We do play our share of original blues rock.
TBR (Texas BackRoads) is primarily an ORIGINAL PROGRESSIVE ROCK project. Our new lead guitar should also be able to incorporate a modern/alt rock sound as well as some music for the Texas Music Scene. We have 3 lead vocalists and are VOCAL RICH with Male and Female lead vocalists with excellent harmonies.
TBR also includes a gifted Synth/Keys Player and killer bassist backed up with rhythm guitar and an outstanding drummer. Most of us love the Pink Floyd style of Progressive Rock but we maintain our own style and sound.
We have been in the studio with our project and now need a replacement lead player to continue this. Songwriters are a BIG plus as well. We recently completed writing 2 new Alt/Rock songs this past week and need your lead guitar input.
Preview our music style here: www.myspace.com/txbackroads
This will give you a cross-section of our music for album ONE. It will also give you some idea of our bands goals and recent exposure in Texas Music Magazine.
Call anytime (ASAP): 281-659-2200 txbackroads@hotmail.com
Looking forward to talking with you...

>>> BASS PLAYER seeking Band <<<
I'm a bass player/guitar player new to Houston and I'm looking to form/join a band. My style is based on a mixture of blues, psychedelic, melodic rock, acoustic, and classical. My influences are Led Zeppelin, Cream, Hendrix, Ten Years After, Savoy Brown, Deep Purple, Grand Funk Railroad, Yes, Jethro Tull, The Beatles, Pink Floyd…just to name a few. The band must be dedicated, enthusiastic, and creative. Covers are fun, but originals are better. I have many almost-complete originals just waiting for some outside inspiration! I'm looking for a sound reminiscent of 1960's psychedelic rock, with roots in blues, but I'm also open to musicians of other influences. Ideally, the band would be comprised of bass, drums, guitar, keyboard, and vocals. Feel free to email me if you think we could make some good music together.

The Right Villanous John Hall Seeks a Drummer and Bassist
The Right Villanous John Hall is forecasting growth; 100% growth to be precise. We are currently two but we must become four. In particular, we are looking for a drummer and a bassist so that The Right Villanous John Hall can exist in the flesh and blood and peddle our rock alongside cocktails at local venues like Walters, Rudz and The Proletariat. The band's sound falls somewhere under the oft-applied "indie/alternative" label. We have a full album worth of originals and more songs in the works. Some tunes are posted on our myspace page: www.myspace.com/therightvillanousjohnhall.
In evaluating potential bandmates, the most important attributes are a pleasant disposition, affinity in musical taste, and good ideas. Kick-ass chops are a definite plus. We don't care if you're male or female, 9 or 90. (If you really are 9, however, we'll probably need your parents to sign a permission slip.) Residing reasonably close to the Rice/Village area of town is also essential, unless you can play the bass or drums via telekinesis, in which case you are hired without further questions! Well, not really hired, but you get the job...
Interested parties should contact us via our myspace page or at villanousjohnhallATgmailDOTcom
.belville is in search of a new bassist/vocalist, female preferred. Must be able to sing on key in melodic harmony. Must be super dedicated, able and willing to tour, have transportation ( or live in the area of Clear Lake), and be able to pitch in for practice room rent. .belville does not do drugs, or excessively drink. We are serious as to where our music is taking us, and would like like-minded individuals. Believing in magic or the universe would be amazing. Equipment can be provided. If interested please call Jay @281-798-6991 or Jonny@281-798-5669 or email us at fromholin@gmail.com. [9/22/2006]
