I am looking for a friend who is at the beginning of learning how to sing who wants to learn together and practice together. I am looking for someone who is also not yet comfortable with their own voice, who is also not confident in their ability to sing a song, but who also feels a passion to express themselves through singing.

Looking for some guys that may be interested in making some hip hop together. A little about me. I'm a 40 year old that grew up on hip hop and rock/metal. I've fronted numerous metal bands over the past 15 years. Over the past year I've made a switch and started working on hip hop. I have a studio at home in Sackville where i am able to make pro recordings with multiple instruments + loads of legit samples. Have the capabilities to make beats for days really. I'm not biased about the style you can bring to the table, whether it be cross genre or whatever, and if you can hold a tune thats cool too. The more styles the better really as I want to put together a group that stands out in our recordings and on stage.
If youre interested, shoot me a message with a little about yourself. If you have some samples you want to share of your work thats cool too.

Hello Halifax
Just moved here from Toronto and am looking for members to fill out a new band. Currently have a few demos done along with a couple others in the pipeline. Have experience playing shows and I hope that’s what we can do with Corporate Memphis here in Halifax :)
Myself playing bass here: https://youtu.be/dxlyjcZEQcc
Need a drummer for sure, and need two of the following three: guitar, bass and synth.
Asked my girlfriend how she would describe my music and she said: “Synthy and dynamic indie”
If you’re interested please reach out with some of your recordings and an email and I can send along the demos

I am an experienced drummer in my late 40s, recently moved to the area. Looking for musicians for an original funk/jazz fusion project, maybe with some prog rock and ethnic elements as well. The most indicative example I can think of is the stuff that John Scofield did with MMW, but I have a huge amount of other influences and ideas. I am a professional with a full time job, so not looking to become a rock star. Play for fun, practice weekly and create some serious music. Open also to playing some gigs and record as well. Absolutely no big egos, drama, etc.

Hey all, I'm a well rounded (ish? ) guitar/ bass player and drummer looking for like minded musicians interested in jamming on Metallica songs and see where it goes. I'm open to other stuff too, honestly Metallica is my main interest and what I'm most well rounded in playing, also know a decent amount of Nirvana and some other random rock stuff.
While I play a few instruments, I'm definitely more skilled on guitar, followed by drums then bass. I welcome jamming with all other instruments, not just the typical rock band setup (but that's a wonderful starting point!)
I'm in Halifax and open to finding places to jam. Rockopolis off Cunard and Fantasie Music Instruments on Spring Garden come to mind, and of course suggestions are always welcome!
Full disclosure, I'm not trying to become a Rockstar, just reaching out to the local musician community to see if anyone's interested in jamming and having a few drinks, who knows maybe write some songs and become a garage band.. I jammed with a few people recently and I took it as a sign to get back out there to enjoy more of the same!
Cheers!

Still practicing mature drummer in 50s - but left the touring & recording career behind years ago. Have since played in locally well-known bands and have subbed for bands and a few Maritime based recording artists.
Interested in most styles ... mainly 1960s-1990s era. Rock, pop, hard rock, Latin styles, jazz, jam band/ alternative, classic soul/ R&B, country, Celtic and original music.
Have good gear, a great PA system with mics, monitors, etc .... and a large, conveniently located, private, secure rehearsal space in Halifax area.
I'm also mobile and available for sub work, and have a smaller quick set-up kit for rehearsals or smaller stages.
Mostly just looking for dedicated musicians or bands who enjoy playing. Ideally ages would be 30's-60s. Other personal details I'm not concerned with at all - just hoping to find players with a love for music, strong ability and dedicated no matter whether the goal is large or small

Hey! I'm a composer and multi-instrumentalist looking to line up some solo gigs this year. I would like to have a drummer in the mix for some of the sets, to help add more energy and dynamics.
It would be hard to hard to attach a singular label to my sound but I draw on a wide range of influences including jazz, funk, electronic music and rock. (Samples of some of my work follow)
Drop me a line if this sounds interesting to you. If so, please include some samples of your playing along with your message. Note that these would be paid gigs, and no commitment is required outside of rehearsals for said gigs.
Also note that there may be a need to play to a click track for some of the tunes, so prior experience with this would be preferred.
