Do any of the original three sing? The new lead vocalist could do with some back-up harmonies to strengthen the overall performance.
I'd be more specific and say that it sounds like a first run through with a pick-up band. Everyone is tentative.
Its all good and they will learn and find theIr own path.
Song idea sounds good, just some arrangement work needed. Things like rhythmical and dynamic variation to verses and chorus.
What I saw and heard were young people playing instruments and making a good sound, with huge amounts of potential for adding the necessary polish.
What a breath of fresh air compared to the endless songs we hear on the radio with auto-corrected signer and a laptop generated backing track.
Keep it going guys - have fun, work hard and you'll make a great band.
as mentioned, listen to the song and work the dynamics(seems to be very much a drummer issue) and harmonies would make a massive improvement.
I know some musicians shy away from the microphone, but it’s so worth it.
I was a crap singer(and not much better now) but through nothing more than perseverance i improved massively and ended up singing with bands.
Great to hear young musicians doing there own stuff too.
Best of luck to them.
anyway, good luck
best rehearsal rooms over ever seen in decades !
It doesn’t have to be complex harmonies - some well-placed aahhhhs and oooos would be good.
Even just doubling up some of the lead vocal would help.
In fact, for less confident singers, even just a kind of monotone speak-singing under the main vocal - if that’s all they can manage - can help to bolster the main vocal.
I'd go big on encouragement - if they feel good about what they are doing they are likely to carry on and if they carry on they'll find their way to more varied/dynamic ways of presenting their songs - remember when you started gigging? working out what goes over well to an audience vs what sounds good on your own in your room practising?..... they have that to come....
One of the things I really like is that they're playing in service of the song - rather than 4 individuals - thats pretty promising I think
