i didn't mean "x" and "y" literally, i meant the woman has a stage name and associated notariety and your band has the same so when you work together be "whatever her stage name is (let's call her "diamond jubilee") and whatever your band is (let's call it "the fancypants")" so "diamond jubilee and the fancypants" in this case.

you both benefit from the combined notariety and cross promotion and you both keep your seperate identities too.
 
Flash in the Pan is a possible band name that came up in conversation yesterday. It's a reference to
the flint spark igniting the pan powder on a flintlock rifle.

I thought the phrase came from the early days of photography...

Swing and a Ms.

I like this one ^^^


Or flip it.......

Hmm, well, these are all horrible... not so much a brain storm as little brain farts and unedited. Sorry.

I'm not going to suggest a name, but if she's a burlesque dancer as well as a singer, you pretty much have to do Fever by Peggy Lee.

+1
Songwise, Nancy Sinatra's version of Sonny Bono's "Bang Bang"... It could be your signature song if you're named "Jaimie Sinatra and Her Sunny Bonos"

Somebody make me stop, please. :help:
 
Pink Void...lol

I suggest you try not to come up with a "sexy" name. It won't fit when she leaves.

IMO, since she is a newbie and you guys are in the honeymoon period with her, as soon as she "learns" the business, she'll be moving on to a group that better fits fits her image and talent (in her eyes).

Good luck.
 
Here’s a few tips....lol

Ok .....old guys standing around a hot chick in promo shots looks wrong. And i bet her gf’s and bf would be saying that too

So try and be a bit more in the background looking cool wearing sunnies or something or outdoors with a few props that distract your looks and focus on her.

I know the pretty reckless do this a bit

Also as Blue has said, here today gone tomorrow, i’ve seen that happen a few times in my bands, they get bored easily, so sort of plan for it. What i mean by this is, do some recordings and good promo’s shots to look as pro as you can be to give your next fem singer an idea on what you require out of a fem lead vox.

So band names, give her a stage name that can be carried by someone else, don’t use her name otherwise it will go with her and she will think its all about her.....plus if she leaves you’ll have to change your promo material and call all the venue owners to explain your still the same band

Thats it, i wont suggest names you already have a few good ones


This is actually great advice!
