If you know people that play, just start jamming together informally… you don’t have to "have a band" with them right away.

    Pick something you feel passionate about, 1 instrument, 1 type of music and get really good. Then try. You need to be able to offer something to a band that makes them better, and if you haven’t gotten into any yet, you don’t have it.

    I would use Myspace or TalentMatch. Craiglist is also another avenue

    If you are good it is easy. Find out who the local booking agents are. If you can’t find them in the yellow pages just go out to hear a decent band, explain your situation and ask who their agent is. Then contact the agent and let him know you are in the market for a band. You will need to provide a demo tape and some promo pictures. When a new band is forming or an established band needs a new member the booking agent is the first place they generally go. This is assuming we are speaking of real professional working bands, not garage bands.

    Try meet some musicians e.g a drummer a guitarist and a bassist. You be the singer and that’s a band started. Or get some of your friends to all learn instruments!
