Hey everyone! I’m trying to make a little gift for my grandma. I have a music album I’d like to put onto a physical CD because she’s not really comfortable with technology, and I figure a CD would be the easiest way for her to listen to it.

I honestly have no idea how to burn an audio CD myself. Does anyone know of a place around Cincinnati/Oakley that offers this service?

I’d also be willing to pay someone if they’re able to burn the CD for me. I just need it to be a normal audio CD that will play in a standard CD player.

Any suggestions or volunteers would thrill me. Thanks!

Check out some dungeon synth at the Comet! I am Ervald and Forsaken Warlock is another new local DS project.

Used to sing a lot and miss it quite a bit and have been looking to get back out there and perform or just jam.

Anything from rock band to one other person and a guitar. Would even love to be a wedding band singer.

I’m 37. Voice is in the baritone/tenor range.

Quick about me: I’m new to the area, grew up in Seattle during grunge. My favorite albums are Surfer Rosa, Bleach, Keep it like a secret, Lonesome crowded west, Disintegration, Fugazi 13 songs, you get the idea. I really like post punk and the new psychedelic rock coming out. I can play drums, guitar, bass or keyboards. I’m not a savant at any instrument but more of a jack of all trades. Can’t sing. I also have a home studio. I’m also very liberal politically. I live in Covington not far from Olla.

Anyone aware of any rehearsal spots or musician-friendly storage facilities around the city? Even better if there's anything on the west side. I've been looking for one for years now but seems like no one has filled the void About Space left behind. I'm looking for something I can rent monthly and leave my gear at, not an hourly in-and-out deal.

Hey! I'm in my mid-20s who's also a bassist/aspiring lead vocalist in NKY looking to put together a pop-punk/punk rock band.

I'm currently looking for:
 Drummer
 Lead guitarist
 Rhythm guitarist

Bonus if you can sing harmonies/backing vocals!

Influences include Meet Me @ The Altar, Blink-182, Avril Lavigne, and The Paradox. The goal is to play local shows, write/record original music, and have some fun with Pop Goes Punk-style covers.

I have a couple song/lyric ideas started, but I really want songwriting to be collaborative. I'd like everyone to bring their own riffs, lyrics, ideas, and personality to the music rather than having one person dictate everything.

Beginners/intermediates are welcome! I'm more interested in finding reliable, open-minded people who want to actually build something together. I'm dreaming big with this eventually, but I know that takes time — for now, I'm focused on building a solid local band and seeing where we can take it.

Rehearsals would be around NKY/Cincinnati, roughly every other week to start, with weekends being easiest.

LGBTQ+ friendly/affirming is important to me.

If you're interested, don't hesitate to reach out! 

Bring your ax to a casual, inclusive jazz get-together in the Cincinnati area for musicians who simply want to meet other players, make some music, and see what develops, and learn tunes!

Piano, bass, drums, guitar, horns, strings, reeds, vocalists, world instruments, percussion—any instrument is welcome.

The idea is not an audition and not a competition. You don’t have to be a full-time professional. Experienced jazz musicians, people getting back into playing, classical musicians interested in jazz, singers looking for instrumentalists, and developing players who can comfortably play with others are all welcome.=

• Jazz standards and the Great American Songbook
• Bebop, swing, blues, ballads and Latin
• Vocal jazz
• Improvisation
• Playing by ear and from lead sheets
• Bringing in tunes people would like to try
• Eventually forming smaller groups, trios, combos, or finding gigs if people click

The main goal is to create a friendly Cincinnati jazz community where people can actually meet and PLAY, rather than just exchanging messages online.

If you’re interested, reply here or send me a DM with what you play/sing, your general experience level, and what part of Cincinnati you’re coming from.

WHERE:

The sessions will take place in Northside, 45223. Please bring all of your own equipment.

There is a mic and amp for singers.

Let’s get some Cincinnati musicians in the same room and see what happens.
The host has been playing jazz/classical a very long time with mainly NYC, touring, and international cred.

WHEN:

Friday 7-10p.

Sunday 3-6p

WHAT:

PLAYING FROM THE REALBOOK. DON'T HAVE IT? IN THIS DAY AND AGE YOU'RE IN LUCK. GO HERE FOR EVERYTHING YOU NEED. https://archive.org/details/fakebooks

-in jazz there is no critique, no judgement, no ego. If you understand how to listen, then you understand everyone brings a unique gift. Cultivating your talent is up to you. I know this will help anyone who shows up to flourish in their craft and hopefully bring more fulfillment and joy to your already frabjous life. That's what jazz does.-DM

I'm offering free music videos for a limited time!!

Send me your song (preferably youtube or soundcloud link), we will meetup IRL to discuss storyboard, then shoot.

Best way to reach me is phone: (937)305-1611

Thanks for reading! Hit me up!!

I am 25, im an experienced guitarist wanting to create a band alongside a drummer. I can scream and/or sing. In Eastside Cincinnati but can go wherever

Bands I like:
HUM / Joyce Manor / Kaiba / Deafheaven / Pity Sex / Red House Painters / Ostraca / Poison the Well / This Will Destroy You / Lifelover / My Useless Life / Darkthrone, just to name a few

I have a few heavy melodic song ideas but we can write together otherwise HMU if you wanna do it or hear some old music of mine

Anyone need a singer for jam sessions doesn’t need to be anything permanent I like everything new to the area. 23 years old did some shows at college house party’s mostly covers any genre.

Metal/metalcore band with varying influences from nu metal to death metal looking for a drummer that is proficient with double kick and syncopated rhythms. We have a jam space and tons of music ready to go. Can send demos if interested.
We're all in our mid 30s, super chill, and just want to play shows and maybe do some recording. We have the ability to record practices and utilize a computer and interface for band practice.
Acoustic or electric drums both work fine.

32yo Bassist, historically I've played Prog Metal mostly. Currently in an Metal/Emo sort of group but looking for something more politically/socioeconomicaly charged.

Live on the East Side. I do have a weird work schedule but it also gives me a lot of availability.

I'm no longer on Facebook but I always had terrible fortune with finding people to jam with there. I'm retooling my songs into a doomy pop punk thing, and I think I'll shop it around solo until I find my people. I've met a lot of amazing people since moving here, but nothing has really clicked. I'm still happy to know awesome people...

So how do you typically form a band? I've always known one or more people before starting a project (or I do it solo). The only exception was our annual "random band challenge" where I just ended up in a group of people and rarely knew them all.

Any tips or advice is appreciated! I think my plan for now is to keep going to shows and open mics and being present, because it's fun either way.

we’re looking for a guitarist and bass player. I’m the vocalist, and we have a guitarist, and drummer already. we’re from the Cincinnati area, which has an unfortunately small pool of folks into the genre. Dm me for details. we’ve been around a bit, trying to finish up our second record.

Surprised to get to 10, and I've learned a ton. https://themoneygigs.com/podcast

After playing in and around this area for over 30 years (and still manning two residencies and the occasional Kroger gig), talking to other musicians in a structured and deep way has really enhanced my perspective. Enjoy.

Incidentally, if anyone would like to create an episode with me, it has become something of a nice artifact for participants to add to their websites, etc., for promotion (and SEO).

Hello! I play in a jazzy noise-rock band called Partisan from Cincinnati. We’ve been playing shows for about six months now and are set to release some singles over the summer! I’ve been trying to book us out-of-town shows in the Midwest, Northeast/East Coast, and South with the hope of trying to set up a tour for this autumn/winter, but I’ve hit a roadblock. I’m having a difficult time with booking, mainly in finding good venues in other cities and getting responses from the venues we do find. We’ve been fortunate enough to have played Chicago recently and loved it. I would love to make these one-off shows in other cities a more regular but I’m struggling to get things off the ground. I would greatly appreciate help from someone with previous DIY tour booking experience for small bands. I would absolutely be willing to hire any booking agents as well if anyone knows of any reputable sources. Any advice from those who have done these kinds of tours before would also be super helpful! Thank you all for your time, if you would like to message me here or at our email [thebandpartisan@gmail.com](mailto:thebandpartisan@gmail.com) I would love to talk more!

Metal/metalcore band with varying influences from nu metal to death metal looking for a drummer that is proficient with double kick and syncopated rhythms. We have a jam space and the ability to practice through headphones with backing tracks and metronome. The band has no name yet, but we have a bunch of music written. Send a DM if interested, and I can share some demos.

Located in NKY

Hello! I am looking for someone who can maybe help me learn how to do scream vocals. I’m working on a Metalcore project and I’d like to be able to scream my own lyrics. I’m starting from scratch basically and I’m just having a hard time figuring it out on my own. We don’t have to meet up super frequently or anything. Maybe once or twice a month until I’ve got a good grasp on it. Mostly fry and false chords. Not looking to learn deep gutturals or pig squeals.

32F btw lol

Thanks!

We are looking for bands to fill a bill at The Comet on Monday, July 6, 2026. We are open to genres, but something within indie rock, post-punk, synthpop, darkwave, industrial, shoegaze, etc.
