A new band is forming · Marin / Bay Area
WANTED:S, A & M
I'm Weston, so I'm the W. I'm looking for a drummer, bassist, and guitarist. If we found three more people whose names started with S, A, and M, our names would spell SWAM and that would be sick. But honestly, if your name is Kevin or something, that's cool too.
Wait, I play one of those↘01 / WHAT WE MIGHT SOUND LIKE
THE GENERAL VIBE
Pretty songs.
Loud guitars.
Moon candy.
I'm thinking indie rock with some shoegazey texture, heartfelt and emotional expression, and whatever other cool stuff happens once everyone starts bringing in ideas.
Basically, here are my faves that I would love to make stuff like:
✎ A safe space to express our emotions and have fun?? Ya.
WHAT I'D LOVE TO DO
Make a band we're genuinely stoked about.
Write some really good songs. Make a record we love. Put together a live set, play around the Bay, and see how far we can take it without being a danger to ourselves or others.
- 01 Mostly original music
- 02 Burn the house down
- 03 Be friends, try weird ideas, bring snacks
02 / ALL SKILL LEVELS WELCOME
FULL DISCLOSURE
I'm learning.
I'm still learning guitar and singing. I want this band to be part of the learning—not something any of us have to be “ready enough” for first.
If you're still figuring out your instrument, getting comfortable playing with people, or have never been in a band before: genuinely welcome. Experienced players are welcome too, especially if you're down for patient, low-ego collaboration.
Showing up, practicing, listening, and wanting to grow matter way more than being technically impressive.
03 / PEOPLE WE'RE LOOKING FOR
OKAY HERE'S THE DEAL
We need three more people.
Drummer, bassist, guitarist. If your name starts with S, A, or M, incredible. We can assign the letters later. If it doesn't, genuinely do not worry about it. Good hang + good music wins.
BASSIST
GUITARIST
04 / OKAY SAY HI
Maybe you should
join this band?
You do not need a cinematic audition video or an impressive music résumé. Just tell me a little about yourself and what you like making.
