Drummer looking to jam

Hey, I’m a drummer looking for people to jam with and potentially build original music long-term.

I have a background in school jazz ensemble drumming (mainly basic swing and traditional grip fundamentals) and about 6 years of classical double bass experience, so I’m comfortable with reading music, ensemble playing, and general theory.

Drums are my newer main instrument, but I’ve been practicing consistently and focusing on timing, groove, and coordination.

I’m into rock, metal, grunge, and classic rock, mainly groove-based stuff.

I’m looking for people who want to jam regularly and eventually develop original material.

I don’t have regular access to an acoustic kit right now, but I practice consistently and can show up ready to play.

I’m a minor, so I’m only looking for age-appropriate jam situations.

LOOKING FOR AN OPENER for show in Snoqualmie!

We're a band (Albuquerque Press) that dabbles in all sorts of styles within the general 'rock' genre, sometimes quiet, sometimes loud. Check us out to see if you'd match up well with us. Show is at Bindlestick in Snoqualmie on June 19th. Would need to fill 45 min to 1 hr. We would all split 80% of the door. Comment if interested.

26m Bass player here new to the area, I've got professional gear and I'm looking for dark prog rock I guess you'd call it. I like to play kind of experimental stuff, as well as your more standard bass lines. I also play acoustic/electric!

I enjoy playing covers too, my favorite is Tool, but I’m also down for Alice in Chains, Pink Floyd, or anything with a similar kind of sound.

Looking for like-minded musicians or an established band that needs a bassist.

Here's some links to my playing, 1st Playlist is some miscellaneous riffs I've come up with. And the 2nd Playlist is an ep idea I was working on about a year ago.

Thanks for reading!

Hello there,

I just moved to west Seattle from the east coast and have no musical contacts out here…so here I am! I’m 33, been playing drums off and on for about 20 years. I have a lot of experience gigging, recording, and have done some limited touring. I’ve played in bands of all kinds from pop punk, to jazz, to surf rock, psychedelic, funk, alternative, folk, country, metalcore, punk, reggae, and indie. Open to others too but if you’re looking for blast beats I’m not your guy, sorry.

Ideally hoping to join an established group, fill in work, or to work with a singer/songwriter trying to get their project to full-band gig ready, but I’d be willing to help build from the ground up if the fit is right.

I have Transportation, gear, in-ear and click experience, no substance dependencies, and unfortunately nowhere to play at the moment so bonus points if you have space we can jam at!

Goals are to gig regularly, record if doing originals, and just chill and play music that makes people move. No ego, no bullshit, clearly set expectations, and professional attitude are all i am looking for.

Either comment below or dm and Send me something to go off so i can check out your sound! Cheers, and excited to be here and to meet as many of you as I can out in the scene.
