How to make a Band

[funky]

Hi, I am just wondering... How do you make a band?
How many people do you need to start? What kind of players do you need? (ex. lead guitar & bass?) How big can a band get?

 

[soft]

funky, do you play any musical instrument? are you looking to form a band?

 

[danial]

you need bass , lead guitarist , drummer , vocalist and rythm guitarist ( but i don't think it's compulsory la )

i am thinking of starting either bass or lead guitar, so i don't think i could start a band real soon. but i am interested. you know, maybe in the future.

that's great funky.

just hang around SOFT to read up more on making music and stuff. :wink:

a band can be as big (or small) as you want it to be. There's no real set ruling as to what players/instruments you should have, as long as what you have, works the way you want it to. Good luck getting started!

 

[ahkiatt]

yeah you can have an acoustic and an electric and play good stuff... and there you go.. a good band...

IMO,a band needs a drummer,a vocal,a bassist and two keyboardists. :wink:

 

[funky]

there's always a surplus of musicians here looking to form bands or jus having a gd time jamming i think

a band number doesnt have to be 5 or 6...

u MUST have 9 men,
in jumpsuits,
with two redundant members,
thrashing the set




ok seriously,u need to find the type of music that u wanna make,and the most important part of a band is the bass and drums...they set the tempo and mood and u can write lyrics over them nicely coz they usually keep the time...guitars is just to further "deepen" the sound u can even have a 2-man band and make the greatest song in the world (Tribute-Tencious D)
