looking for CAREER, musicians..keyword is DEDICATION!!
That means..... live it, breathe it, MAKE it at all costs!!! (and that means practicing, showing up for pratices, doing the homework and putting in the time and effort!!!) Be PREPARED to WORK!! It is a labor of love, but it requires HARD WORK. There is no easy path to making it in music. If you think there is, especially around this area your deluding yourself. If you have a family and/or a great job....... this is probably not the project for you. I'm looking for the musicians who lie awake in bed not able to sleep because something they can't live without is missing in thier life, and would rather die homeless trying for it then do anything else. ( But I PROMISE that WILL NOT happen with this).
Want on one hand to play MODERN rock covers of a totally mixed genre, which we will be eventually playing live at high $$ venues. On the other hand we have a very unique recording opportunity with a music producer in San Francisco for originals....I want your talent. I want to accomplish putting 40 covers together in short order to be able to play 2 nights a week as a job so members can avoid other employment, and focus time on writing, recording, and marketing of originals.
Influences..... Way too many to list. Have sang everything live from Barry Manilow (don't often admit that. lol) to Metallica and Pantera. Can sing melodic... And get pretty down and dirty when I need to. Band wise we are looking at everything from "Stacys mom" to Dead Memories from Slipknot. Coheed and Cambria, Mistfits, 3 doors down, Jimmy Eats World. I'll sing bruno Mars if the crowd wants to hear it. anything that can be classified as modern rock...... Also, Throw in a couple sappy ballads to make the women wet, get the guys laid and they all come back to the next show!!! lookin to do that much of a variety... (always be prepared.) Are you?? .... throw somethin at me.
I am an experienced singer and entertainer as well as possessing a business degree, and have run companies. I look at this as a business as well as my passion, and have target audiences, and a business plan to fill niches in the music industry that WILL succeed at all costs.
I am looking for serious, passionate, DEDICATED and talented CAREER musicians (Would like to keep the age range between 18 and 33). Gender is not an issue.
Drop me a line at chuckklapp at or text or call me at (309) 573-3790.
Summer is here, lets get rockin and not waste it!!!

Influences
From metal and hard rock to party tunes and songs that make chicks cry. Playing/singing ANY music is better than anything else you can do for a living. I'd rather be singing anything than doing oil changes or standing on an assembly line or hanging out a window asking "would you like fries with that" wouldn't you?
EQUIPMENT
I have a full practice/recording studio in my home with full P.A. and 24 track studio recording capability. Also totally equipped with 7 peice maple drum kit, 3 basses and 2 bass rigs, more guitars than I'd care to count, from Gibsons to schecters, dean, washburn.... I could go on and on and on, and 2 marshall half stacks. Also probably the largest full live P.A. system of a band around this area. About 30,000 watts, and everything down to in ear monitors.... and on and on and... well you get the idea.
( My house was once described as "Chuck E. Cheese for musicians!!" lol.
Oh yeah fyi.... I have an alarm system too!!!
