ABOUT

I'm looking for a long haired drummer!
And a long haired keyboardist!
And a long haired lead guitarist!

And possibly looking for a new lead vocalist or some people willing to grow out there hair long to form a band and finish recoding a 10 song album at the studio and then play shows to get these songs out there to the masses!
I have wrote hundreds of songs and ideas and I picked out the 10 best songs to put on this album but I would like to create some new songs with some new band members ideas and input!
And then I want to send this demo cd to my cousin who is a record producer but he is waiting for me to find the rest of the band members and get them all together and get really tight before I send it out to him!
He has recorded bands like:
Kiss
Heart
Kid Rock
Red Hot Chili Peppers
54-40
Little Richard
Sum 41
Alannah Myles
And many more!
And I would like him to add my band to that list one day!
I play all original music but some cover songs that I would like to play with my original songs after altering them all into a darker heavier version would be:
Paul Stanley - Lift
Fleetwood Mac - Tell me lies
Pantera - Takin my life

If you like any of these cover songs and you feel anything from these lyrics then you will like my songs that I create!

I have a dedicated bass player with long hair and me singing the songs and playing the rhythm guitar with long hair.
But some of the drummers that I have been working with they just are not serious about the band at all and they are all in other bands that they care way more about and always put me last and I'm getting really sick of them not caring like I do and them not showing up for the band!
So I'm trying to see if there's any other drummers and lead guitarists and keyboardists out there that might care a little more about this band then they do and try to make something happen with me before it's too late and we all get to old and the chance to do anything with music is really gone forever!
I'm looking for:
A drummer and I already have all the equipment for them to use!
And a lead guitarist and I already have all the equipment for them to use!
And possibly a new lead singer if there better then me so I can just focus on the guitar playing and singing some backup vocals!
(Or we could try out 2 Singers if it sounds good!)
Let me know if your interested in making music and be apart of something original and unique sounding!

And many more stuff that I forgot about and so many things that I dont even use anymore but still have lying around here!
I have a full recording studio at my house and all the music equipment anybody would ever need to use!
And I can get the band sponsor with whatever they need and get 25% off anything because my cousin owns musical strings 'n' things in chatham and he wants to see this band succeed and he has helped me develope an unbelievable studio and sound over the years and made me all the equipment that I need for my custom sound I created!
I just need to find the right people to jam with and use it all to it's full potential and create a masterpiece together!

If you’re reading this then I am still looking for the last few band members that I need to find and I still have not found them yet!
I need a Drummer!
A keyboardist!
And a lead guitarist!
So get a hold of me if you’re interested.
Thanks
