I'm a lead singer, looking to start an all original rock band whenever it's ok to be in bands again. I'm happiest with a riff-based, grungy/indie rock sound, maybe a small punk influence, with a mish mash of influences like:
-Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
-Rolling Stones
-Soundgarden
-Reef
-Black Keys
-Brian Jonestown Massacre
-Royal Blood
-Screaming Trees
-Raconteurs/White Stripes/Dead Weather
-Television
-Black Angels
I'm envisioning a classic power trio (plus me), *possibly* with keys or a second guitar, but focused for now on just finding a drummer, bassist and guitarist who share that kind of musical vision.
Here's my last band, which had a little bit proggier/punkier sound, but shows you what I can and can't do as a singer (that's also me playing harmonica, which I like to do on maybe 1-2 songs a set, tops.)

I'm 40 and will never be a top 40 lead singer, so I'm just in it to have a few beers, collaborate on writing kickass rock and roll songs, play some fun gigs at awesome venues, and maybe record when we feel like our songs are polished enough that we want to put them on wax. If that sounds like your ball of wax, hit me up.
