Title: Check Out My Band - ATL What?!
Post by: B18C5-EH2 on July 13, 2006, 11:03:23 AM
I've been in this band, Muuhda, for over 5 years now.  We've played a few major label showcases, but as some of you know the music industry is a very difficult industry to get into.

Anyways check us out at:

www.myspace.com/muuhda

And

www.muuhda.com

We have been featured on a few local ATL radio stations such as 99X and 105.3 the Buzz, and on those links you can get some free music and watch a music video we have.

Oh and in case you're wondering I am the singer in the band.

:)

Holy crap I just saw some pics from our last show, and it makes me look like a crazy-ass screamo singer/screamer.  Really I do sing, but when I sing I REALLY get into it on stage.

Anyone care for some pics?  I'll try to directly show them, and if they don't work i'll just throw some links:

Rest of those show pics are here:

Alright!!  So... can I get free tickets next time your on stage?  hahaha.

Looks like you guys are on the up and up.  ATL is a tough crowd.  My bro-n-law is a starving HIPHOP artist, he was working with some cats in lower five points, in ATL.

Best of luck.

Good sound BTW...unique.

Actually I'm on the GS today because the SV would have required moving a car out of the way.

It is who you know - end of story.

We've played two "show cases" for two different major label vice presidents and they both said we were not "pop punk" enough. 

I've basically taken the position of not getting signed, and not rtrying to write music to cater to assclwon A&R guys who stay at labels for two months before hitting the road.

I like everything but the guitarist's tone.  Sounds like the gain is cranked up to 11, then playing through a big muff pedal.  I like his chops but just not feeling the tone.  Feel like it needs something a little throatier and less tinny/chisely.  What kind of guitar does he use?

It's a PRS, but i'm not sure which PRS it is.

Did you listen to all the songs?

Thanks.

Do you play guitar?  Do you have a band?

I've been playing for about 12 years but haven't played in a band since college.  We played lots of blues based rock stuff.  We were a cover band but were cool with it.  Knew it wasn't anything any of us wanted to pursue.  It was just fun to go out and play every weekend.  Plus, it helped with weekend money for college.  :thumb:
