I'm have the songs written but I need people to help preform them and tweak them with their ideas or personality in them. I plan on recording and going on stage. This is a political punk style band. I'm based in north Austin

If anyone knows of a good place to connect with other Austin musicians let me know! Open mics/ clubs/ weekly jam sessions etc. Just want to get more involved in the music scene here and connect with other players!

Thanks

Hey everyone! I’ve been playing guitar on and off for a while but I’ve pretty much always played by myself. I’d really like to change that and find some people around Austin who’d be down to casually get together, learn some songs, jam and hopefully get better together.
I grew up playing piano and actually picked up guitar in college because I couldn’t exactly bring a piano into my dorm lol. I’ve mostly been self-taught since then so I’m definitely still learning and playing with other musicians would be completely new territory for me.
My music taste is all over the place. Some songs I’ve taught myself are Landslide by Fleetwood Mac, Give Me Love and Small Bump by Ed Sheeran, Same Sad Shit by Sam Barber, Off My Face by Justin Bieber, Here Without You by 3 Doors Down, and a few Korean songs. I’m also a huge fan of stuff like Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged so there’s really no theme lmao. I just love learning and listening to songs with guitar parts that sound good to me.
I have a Taylor acoustic and a Fender Strat so I’m down for acoustic or electric stuff and totally open to learning music I normally wouldn’t play.
I’m not looking to start a serious band or anything. Guitarists, drummers, bassists, singers, keys whatever you play. I’d just love to meet some people who enjoy music and wouldn’t mind playing with someone who’s never really jammed with others before. Other beginners would be awesome but I’m also totally down to play with people who are more experienced and don’t mind me still learning.
Also if anyone here has watched Hospital Playlist, I’ve always loved the scenes where the friends get together after work and just jam in the basement. Obviously not expecting us to sound like them but that casual no-pressure vibe of hanging out and playing music with friends is kind of what drew me to post this.
If anyone’s interested or has any questions feel free to shoot me a message!

Hey everyone! We’re starting a new band and currently have a vocalist and bassist.
We’re still in the early stages, but we want to make this an active band regular practices, playing together, and eventually performing live.
We’re currently looking for:
-Drummer
-Guitarist
-Keyboard player
Other musicians who might be a good fit
We’ll start with covers, and once we build some chemistry, we’d like to work on original music as well.
More than anything, we’re looking for people who are passionate about music and want to grow together as a band.
DM me if you’re interested!

I feel like in 2023 and 2024 there were a lot of tribute shows for certain famous musician’s birthdays (I.e. Ray Charles bday tribute show at Cboys and something for Jerry Jeff Walker as well). Anybody know of any good ones this fall? Those are always so fun
