I'm reaching out to you guys and asking for help on choosing a new name for my cover band it's a five piece rock cover band.
We figured the name we have now is too long and sounds more like an original band and so far no club has put the whole name on the signs.
So any suggestions will be appreciated , thanks

Yeah, you want to go with something easy. My last band was 'Stimulus Package', we started in 2009 just after the whole US Govt stimulus program. We thought we were being clever... the only problem was that most of the joe shmoes didn't seem to get the joke. Plus calling bars and saying the name... they could never figure out what I was saying over the noise in the bar.

Also, if you are cover band, it doesn't have to be original. Just make sure no bands in your greater area are using it. For example, we use 'The Void'. I know there are a few other unknown bands out there with that name, but so what.

How about The Frankenberries? Lol. My daughter would be a fan right off the bat. Or even Little Joe and the Thunder Chiefs? Oh wait…

Nice. For those out of the loop, "Little Joe and the Thunder Chiefs" is the current name.

@Keith Sweat - You are never too old to play in a band.

"The Funbags"
"Dick Hurtz and the Purvurtz"...(comes with the joke Whose Dick Hurtz?....Not Mine!"
"Joe Banana and the Bunch"
If you are in a grunge band.."Corndog Commode"
"The Pink Slips"
I always wanted to be in a band called "Avalanche" or The Hurtin' Thang" or "Mo'Jams"
Just some suggestions..just make sure its fun, easy to remember, not hard to spell or say and something to let everyone know its a band if possible..Remember "Toto" also makes the world's best toilets!
