My names Phoenix. I have my own practice space in Ankeny. I’m building a committed, high-energy band with one goal: to make it. I’m not looking for weekend hobbyists — I’m looking for musicians who want to create something lasting, record, perform regularly, and push each other to grow. About the music: Style: Rock with soul/blues edge (raw energy, emotional hooks, and tight grooves) We’ll be focusing on original material, but we’ll also work in select covers to sharpen our live show and connect with crowds Covers will be chosen to fit our sound and performance style — not generic bar-band stuff What I’m looking for: Guitarists, bassist, drummer (keys welcome if you bring something special) Reliable gear, reliable transportation Commitment to rehearsing consistently and performing live Open to collaboration but serious about putting in the work No ego trips — but a strong work ethic is a must If you just want to jam for fun or “see what happens,” this isn’t your project. If you want to push boundaries, perform with passion, and be part of something real — let’s talk.
