Ft worth Zine Fest during the day, and live music in the evening 8-11pm :)

I'll be in Dallas, TX for work from Monday Oct. 19th to Wednesday Night Oct. 21st. Are there any cool Metal/Hardcore shows happening on those days? From DIY house shows to arena shows?

Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone! I’m interested in building and managing a pop-punk band with members around 18–21 years old.
I’m looking for people who are passionate about music, have a strong personality, and want to build something from the ground up. The goal is to develop an original sound, release music, play live shows, grow a fanbase, and eventually turn it into something bigger.
I’m interested in the pop-punk/emo scene, with influences from bands like Blink-182, Sum 41, Paramore, and the modern pop-punk scene.
I’m looking for musicians who are serious about creating music, collaborating, and putting in the work to grow together. I’m interested in handling the management, branding, promotion, social media, and helping the band find opportunities.
If you’re a singer, guitarist, bassist, drummer, or someone who knows young musicians looking to start a band, I’d love to connect!
A few questions:
Are you currently in a band, or would you be interested in starting one?
What instrument do you play, or what role would you want?
What bands influence your sound?

Feel free to comment or DM me. I’d love to see what we can build together!

Guitarist who's been watching here for a while and it seems everyone is looking for metal bands. What's the deal with that? Is there a non-metal scene to be found? I'd love to be part of something that's 80s, 90s, blues, or classic Motown/Stax R&B.

What’s up. I’m Stephen. As the title suggests, I’m a 25 y/o Fort Worth based vocalist looking for some likeminded musicians to jam with. I’m kind of just looking to get out there more. Music is something I’ve always been passionate about, and I guess I’d like for it to play a larger role in my life. I’ve attached a snippet from a cover I recorded a few days ago. I’ve got other covers if you’d like to hear more. Hmu if interested🤷🏾‍♂️

Make some music. Play some shows. Damage some eardrums.

Doom metal band looking for a singer with the ability to do traditional melodic mixed with aggressive vocals. Candlemass, Trouble, Reverend Bizarre, Solace, Saint Vitus, 70’s proto, etc. feel free to DM me.

Im in a band from Tennessee called Penalty Shot and I used to live in the dfw area. Id like to come and play some music there next year but I want to know some local acts and venues that would be down to have us. You can find our music here https://open.spotify.com/artist/72Snr5t9xMNqulZhS4z7lF?si=zSAqk8xiR7WtrB2SbeeFMg&utm_source=copy-link

Hola buenos días,

Qué grupos norteños con Saxofón recomiendan para eventos de boda en Dallas/Fort Worth. Tambien me gustaría saber el precio. Muchas gracias !

Hello, good morning,

What Norteño groups with Saxophone do you recommend for wedding events in Dallas/Fort Worth. I would also like to know the price. Thanks!

I am 16. I am looking to join a band or find band members. I am somewhat new to singing, about 8 months or so. My range is A2-G5 but I am still learning to consistently switch registers. I am looking for a post-hardcore/metalcore band. My favorite band is coldrain. Coldrain is a big influence.

Guitarist/songwriter in McKinney looking for people to collaborate on original material. Mainly looking for 2nd guitar, bass, drums and vocals, but I’m also open to joining an established project that needs another guitarist.

Influences include Karnivool, Good Tiger, Time the Valuator, Circa Survive, Saosin, Dayseeker, From Indian Lakes, Anberlin, ERRA and Invent Animate. So somewhere between atmospheric/melodic post-hardcore, prog and heavier modern stuff. Different tunings, clean and heavy sections, not trying to stay in one tiny genre box.

I’m 40, so people roughly 30s–40s would probably be the easiest fit socially, but I care more about the music than an exact age.

DFW preferred, but I’m completely open to remote collaboration if you can record and exchange tracks/stems.

Discography can be found on https://linktr.ee/derekpennington

If this sounds remotely like your lane, send me some of your music.

I play guitar in a few bands around town, mostly rnb, soul, pop. I’ve found most shows don’t have enough funk songs in the mix, so:

I’m looking to form a band that covers modern funk bands like vulfpeck, parcels, galactic, pretty lights, etc. with primary focus on dance music. Maybe some detours into electronic funk bands too like flamingosis, pretty lights etc.

Once we perfect a few covers, the hope is to jam on top, and maybe add a vocalist when the time is right.

Age don’t matter, just have the skills to hold down a tight groove. Practice will be in DFW.

Who’s down?

Hey everyone, I’m a 25 year intermediate bassist in the DFW area looking to connect with other musicians and find a band.

I’m interested in playing originals and covers, especially rock, alternative, punk, and pop.

I’m looking for people who want to practice, jam, play shows, and build something together.

I’m around Euless/Arlington and can travel around the DFW area.

If you’re a guitarist, drummer, vocalist, or another musician looking for a bassist, feel free to message me!

Looking to join a band in need of a skilled guitarist. My inspirations include Morbid Angel, Unleashed, Entombed, Massacre, Necrophobic, At War, Venom, Exorcist (1985), and Possessed.

Located in Bedford, able to travel up to an hour away.
