hey folks. I just moved from Halifax to Nanaimo and I am hoping to start a band project while here. Ideally seeking female singer/songwriter as a vocalist/writer (I tend to write male/female counter-melodies), and some players who can also sing some harmonies. Looking for guitarist, bass player (elec or upright), keys/synth, string players also welcome.

I'm thinking sound wise something in the vein of The Smiths, Whiskeytown, The Shins, etc. - Wed, 4 Jul 2012 11:33am Edited: Wed, 4 Jul 2012 11:34am

hey there ~ I really like the clip and I'm interested in getting together over coffee to have a play. I dig the shins, certainly.
I play basses, guitars, sing lead & bg's, write some too.

Well grounded musical theory, very solid gear & tones, studious, mucho stage experience, team player. - Wed, 11 Jul 2012 10:41am Edited: Wed, 11 Jul 2012 10:43am

I'm interested! Would prefer to play guitar, but also play drums and passable bass. I've recorded a few albums solo, so can contribute in writing. Good gear, low maintenance, creative, love being on stage, mature. Just looking for a creative band to make some thoughtfully written songs.

Now that is a beautiful song my friend. I am a female singer-songwriter, you can hear some samples of my work at http://www.reverbnation.com/hatchlingmusic

I'd be interesting in jamming to see what happens =)

I have been singing and playing since I was six (33 now), some of my favorite artists are TV on the Radio, The Black Keys, Tom Vek, Bjork, Bat for Lashes, Lamb, Thom Yorke, Beck, Interpol, Boards of Canada.

I love emotional indie rock with lots of rich layered sound. Love anything electronic too, and the two together make me ever so happy.

I am a mature single mom who works hard and loves music more than anything.

Hope to hear from you,
Erin
