Well, I am in Canada, am MUCH older than you, and couldn't play an instrument to save my life!  But I would LOVE to be a groupie!  Good luck!  :)

First things first...simply agree to be in a band, and practice together until you feel you are good enough to record a CD! The, when you are, see if there are any local recording studios in your area (often colleges and universities will have them..) and hire one out for a period of time to lay down a CD! Then, get copies of this CD, and send it out to as many record companiies as poss.

Post something on craigslist.org in the Gigs section.  You can post in your specific area or anywhere in the US.

I'm gonna have a listen to your stuff.  I'm always up for going to gigs, and Camden isn't too far away.  In fact, I'm desperate to get in a band, if I can work it out around my nasty shift work!

Wow! I think that would make a really good song! Good luck with it. Hope to hear it soon.

Find someone to help you book some gigs, get a band (if you dont have one) and get a van to travel to the gigs and to sleep in.  Be willing to take ANYTHING to get your music out there.  It will also be a very big help for you to have a self-recorded and self-pressed CD for sales at the gigs.  If you don't have extra ways of making money, you'll starve.\n\nI did this for a while back in the early 80s.  It was a lot of fun, but we were always dirty and hungry.  We'd play in front of anyone and any size crowd.  We never really 'made it', but it was fun for a while.

find a style of music or an artist that you all enjoy or are influenced by, then just get everyone together in a garage or a basement and play till your fingers hurt. it is a lot of fun. I suggest that you try and cover a few doors songs with the keyboardist. \n     make sure that your amps are loud enough for the drummer to hear, if not then it is likely that you will be out of time alot.\n     I also suggest that you do not worry about gigs right now, unless you are all really good now and comforatable playing with each other.\n     I also think that you should try to find a singer and mabie a bass player, the singer is for singing(duh) and the bass player will help keep time along with the drummer.\n     i started my own band and we had a keyboardist but the drummer could not hear him so it did not work out. \n     you should also get earplugs, jam sessions are really loud and you dont want to damage your hearing so you cant listen to music

I was skeptical, but I went to your site.  Your ballads are awesome.  I like Someday the best, because it is soulful, almost "blusey".  Say What You Mean reminded me of the Beatles.  You HAVE to include How Can I Miss You.  Not because it's great music--because it is novel and will get a chuckle.  That will be the one to make you rich if you make it.  Whether you give me any free music, I am inclined to buy a track or two.  I pray for your success--you have something good going there.  Do you write your own music?

I agree with what everyone eles said it depends on how good you are and how famous you may become.  Seeing as your well experienced with the instuments, all you have to do now is get someone to hear you play. someone that can help you out

Sing your songs with all your musical friends. Enter every competition you can through your school, through your borough or Arts Council or whatever. Write songs for your school drama group or anything else that is going on. Get involved with your local church choir if the singing side is more important. Get involved with youth groups. Work for a "Distinction" in your next grade, which of course is the REAL grade, isn't it? Finally, there is a life outside music, singing, songwriting. Listen to the birds. Look at nature. Learn to recognise earth's heart-beat and use it's tempo in your writing.\n\nThe MySpace site is a bit adult for you. trust me on this. I know Chris Wall of AirTraffic and he told me you got to get good first heard second.\n\nI have a son at the Guildhall School, G6 merit on Double Bass. He did and is doing all the things I recommend above. Please get your parents to vet all answers you get. Listen to JulianFrancis answer above mine. There's someone who knows something about real life.

There is always a place for something new! If you came out with a CD i'd buy it! I'm always into something new! I love country and Rock, Your style (evenescense) I really like that kind of stuff! Not so much Rap it gives me a headache sometimes! If you've come out with a demo tape that is pretty cool but if you feel your good and you get good reviews then go for it! Try it! Nothing says that you can't try! You tried to make a band and you have one now don't you? Good Luck and hope you make it! I'll be sure to get your CD =) Just fill me in when it comes out if I don't see your music videos lol =)

Same as you - I'd love to be able to sing. I don't want to be famous or anything, but I'd love to have a nice singing voice.
