Hey,
I'm new around the area and looking to find a band to join. I'm living in Sutton Coldfield but working in Rugby, so either location would be do-able, somewhere inbetween or nearby is not a problem as I have a car to transport me and my keys around.

I'm 24 and an accomplished pianist, I've mainly been playing jazz/funk in the last few bands I was with at university, but have played a lot of rock too so would be open to playing either style or doing backing/synths for guitars.

Recently my main influence has been Dream Theater (trying to model myself on Jordan Ruddess!), and I'm really getting into playing rock piano/synth. But I can play across a wide variety of rock/metal/progressive rock and popular stuff, such as Muse, Coldplay, Radiohead, Evanescence, Steve Vai, Jamiroquai, Calvin Harris, Kasabian...

I'm able to pick up most tunes pretty quickly by ear so learning new songs shouldn't be too hard and I can play a range of styles and also improvise thanks to my jazz roots. Not too bothered what style of band I join, as long as we have fun playing together!

Let me know if you're interested in using me or if you'd be interested in starting a new band if you play guitar/bass/drums/vocals, or if you'd just like to jam!! Also might be interested in writing original stuff too.

Jon

Hi Jon,

We would certainly be interested in you coming and having a jam with us. As The Revolution we run two successful jam nights in the West Midlands (Halesowen and Stourbridge) with a view to doing some gigs in our own right. Running jam nights is fairly lucrative, but 2/3 of us already have other bands and projects. However, come and jam and you never know what you may pick up. Do you sing at all?

Hi jon

Im interested in starting up a new band with your pianist expertise! Looking to start something original, but mixing in all the members elements into one, getting that groove and feel most people seek out of music, nothing to fancy, really appreciate, chilled music, and up beat music that's easy listening, as described, cold play. I myself play guitar, have been playing for 10 years, let me know if your interested
