How to go about this, mates? Where can I find the Johnny Marr to my Morrissey?
>>64392208
find your local scene. go to festivals, concerts, etc. you gotta find the people.
force your friends to learn instruments and beat them if they are bad
>>64392285
this honestly
>>64392285
This was how Nirvana started
>>64392285
Woah now Captain Beefheart
if the only thing you have going for you is a "decent" voice then you should probably become more indispensable before your future band kicks you to the curb.

>implying you need to be an amazing singer nowadays
Car Seat Headrest is the hottest indie band right now.
>>64392208
Area?
>>64392540
Fucking Brazil
>>64392208
Have you tried calling Jonny Marr? He hasn't done anything worthwhile for the last 30 years.
>>64392565
Woop no help there. I don't know about that man
>want to form a band
>literally EVERYONE I know is only interested in guitar
I'd play the bass if I could sing and owned a bass
But this is going fucking nowhere
>>64392565
Maybe someday you will be able to join the shittiest blackened thrash band ever as a bassist.
Who knows :^)
>>64392738
Be a rhythm guitarist?
>>64392800
But we still wouldn't have a bassist because I can't afford the both the bass and an amp
>>64392565
Funk carioca cara
>>64392285
A lot of people don't realize that this is how Glenn Branca / no wave rose to prominence.
>>64392208
find a band, befriend a member or two, convince them their current singer is shit, wedge way into band, profit
>>64392893
Play acoustically?
[spoiler]It's how my old band drove me and the drummer out[/spoiler]
how do you even find people to make a band with none of my friends are interested in music and i have no idea what my local scene is even.
what do you even do? pass out business cards at shows like "hi i play guitar please hire me"

Gumtree

i'm american should i just use craigslist
>>64393182
You could try making an announcement in a local newspaper, or just run around an art school.
>>64393353
Should be the same then. Otherwise, if you've got a local music school put up a flyer there? I remember back when I used to go to uni, the music department had a noticeboard that people would pin flyers too looking for band members
>>64392565
Where at in Brazil? southern Brazil has an insane music scene going on right now. I live in USA and am jealous
>>64393535
São Paulo. I don't know anything about the music scene here.
