Want to start a heavy metal band?

I want to start a band!?

  • ok guys i really want to start a band. i like bands like a day to remember, paramore, all time low, hawthorne heights, rise against...etc... you get where that is going. well anyways i was wondering if anyone knew where to start? i play saxophone and im like a beginner on guitar and piano. ive been told i can sing but i havent tried singing this type of music. also, some of my friends are good at instruments but i dont think they would join my band if i made one lol so i need to know how to go about finding people in a smalll town. if anyone could help it would be great! thanks:) ps: im taking a composition class at band camp and i write lyrics all the time but they are kinda more like poems:/ if you could help with how to write lyrics to it would be appreciated:)

  • Answer:

    You sound like a hipster! haha! Well my friends started a band (I had no musical talent so didnt try out), but they are getting pretty popular for some teenagers. I suggest you hand out flyers about the band, post auditions on bulletin board at the market or walmart and stuff. Make a facebook fan page and post updates daily. Now like I said before, have auditions because you want something new and fun. You could also meet new people and become a success!! Musical poems and lyrics are mostly the same and its similar to rapping. Hope you have fun girl and "Don't Stop Believing".

Songs are like musical poems and I'm in the same boat, lyrics but no band. If you want help with lyrics just go to my profile and hit contact this user or email this user and let me know what you wanna do with the lyrics

Just play Rockband

Get your friends together with your instruments, and share your songs! Start writing the music for them either together or separately. Practice often, and once you get good enough for gigs, put something on Craigslist in the "gigs" section, and find random places to play! :P Oh, and as for genres, since it appears you've played sax the longest, you could start a ska band :) I <33 ska :) Good luck!!
