ABOUT

New 2000s Geared NOVA Hard Rock/Metal Band Looking for Keyboardist/Synth

We are a new NOVA hard rock/metal/metalcore/"butt rock"/post grunge/alt rock band that currently has a female singer, two guitarists, drummer, bassist, and is looking for a keyboardist/synth. The plan is to start out with the below covers (and those of a similar nature) and then slowly work on originals to add to the list for a mix of covers/originals. The sound of the band is geared towards 00s alt rock/hard rock/metal/metalcore/alt metal/nu metal/post grunge. Since we are fairly new, we are open to input on new cover songs and obviously with the originals. If a keyboardist/synth is available, we would like to add more songs in the symphonic metal/rock realm like Evanescence, Nightwish, Lacuna Coil, etc.

All of us are in our mid 30s, have jobs, and aren't looking to make this a career, but we would like to have fun, play out occasionally, work on some new music, and rock out. It would be great to get a drummer who can do double bass drum, but its not a requirement. There are no set practice days yet, but ideally Friday, Saturdays, or Sunday evenings and in the Fairfax/Annandale/Alexandria/Arlington area. Please let me know if you're interested, have any questions, or just want to discuss more!
