This is a group for LGBT rock musicians and singers of all levels who seek to jam, collaborate and create rock based music.  We play rock covers and original rock music. I'm in a rock band and although I enjoy my straight band mates I want to Rock Out with similarly inclined brothers and sisters of the LGBT community. Please be LGBT and a musician or singer in the NYC area. Studio rental costs for a jam session will be split amongst participants after the 7-10-12 jam.

Loose group, mostly boomers and those who like playing primarily woodstock type music, plus blues, and whatever inspires us.  Nothing formal goin' on here.

It's loud, on purpose.  I'm sure there are good folk, jazz, bluegrass, and country jams around. This isn't one. Booze and etc. are not invited. BYO bev.  We chip about $15 each t …

This is a defunct musicians' group.

This group is a work in progress. I've just become the organizer so bear with me and root for me to put something together that makes it work.

Hi and welcome to the Beatles & Beer singalong! This isn't a jam band, or performance-based group. Basically, it's a singalong that  is voice-centered, the pleasure of the group sing is the thing here! No electric or amplified music, just a few acoustic instruments or hand held percussion. It's folky, it's fun as heck, and it's mostly Beatles. Shower singers of the world, unite! :) Fans of Beatles and/or beer will like this as well as people who like singing. We meet once a month on a Saturday a …

This group is for people like me, whose spirits are lifted after going out and hearing good music and sharing time with like minded individuals. I started this group to find other music lovers in NJ. Most of the groups that I was searching for were in NYC. I wanted to highlight the people and places that play the kind of music you have to dig deep for. Everyone has their own defintion of good music. Here is mine: Soulful/afro house, afrobeat, Funk/Soul(james brown to sharon jones), 50's RB/ro …

There are amazing musicians who play mostly for tips- and I'm tired of seeing their work go unappreciated. I know that there is an audience who loves all kinds of roots based music- and would welcome the opportunity to be part of a community that connects with artists on a personal level. This group is such an opportunity.

Mission Statement: Over the next few years, I would like to immerse myself in the learning and understanding all types of music: classical, baroque, folk, jazz, blues, rock, country, etc., to experience the process of lyric and song writing, and to learn to play instruments from cello to kazoo (I don’t mean master, but to gain an introduction to a wide variety of instruments). I would like to find individuals, musicians or non-musicians, interested in joining or participating in this endeavor. P …

I recently posted this ad on Craigslist: I'm a keyboard player, suburban dad, 40, formerly a touring musician now a computer nerd. I want to play music regularly but I don't want that music to be from the 50's and 60's. I also can't join your band and start touring (as much fun as that would be). I am searching for a gig that has the following characteristics: - competent musicians - this means that you know how to play, can pick up tunes by ear and are comfortable just sitting down and jamming …
