Steps To Joining Las Vegas Cover Bands

By Janine Hughes


A cover band should not be confused with a tribute band since they are different and more often than not one is confused for the other. It refers to a group of musicians that are not well known, that they play music that has been released by other groups. This is very legal and it is a great way for the upcoming musicians to start. They are often hired to play at much smaller venues such as pubs and clubs for a small fee. These las vegas cover bands are very famous for their good music.

These groups are very popular in Las Vegas, NV for their great music. For a person that is throwing a party may it be a birthday party or a wedding hey mostly opt for this option because they are much cheaper and at times some of them are better than the original band. All that one has to do is give them a list of the various songs they would wish to be played at their party.

Some well known bands did start from the bottom playing other peoples music. If a musician is really good at what he does, it is a great way to start and gain many followers and may be later with hard work, discipline and dedication they can gone to record their own original music. Some of them have made up to three cover albums before recording their own.

To join a band is very easy but the tricky part is being successful at it and making some money out of it. There are no requirements for joining one all you have to do is be in a position to learn songs fast and have a melodious voice. That is it simple. But to be successful at it you have to choose the genre of music you are most comfortable with.

Passion for music is very important to succeed but it is not enough. For one to succeed in anything one has to set out a plan of action. In this case the first step is writing down all the songs that you are very well conversant with. Then critically look at the list and remove any songs that are not popular in Las Vegas, NV. The reason for this is that they will just be wasting your time.

Having decided on which genre of music you are best at and you are comfortable with, look at you list once more and remove all those that are not within your selected genre. Knowing the structure of the song is also very vital.

After narrowing down the list, get the real recordings of the various songs just to ensure you get it right. Then listen carefully to the songs and ensure you have locked down every key note there is. If a song seems difficult, move on to the next. Keep doing this and adding more songs to your list till they are close to fifty.

After doing all this you are now ready to join a cover band or form one. The places that you will get advertisements for these include bulletin boards around Las Vegas, NV as well as the classified section.
