Is anyone else in a band with their spouse / partner? What's it like for you?

Yesterday my partner (46M) and I (41F) did our first recording session together. We have been together for 18 months and been in a band together for about 6. We met through bands - my band was going to play with his for our first gig. That fell through but he ended up putting on our first gig for us anyway and we went on our first date the following week and have been inseparable since.

Our band together is like, the 20th band he has been in and it's my second. We are a 3-piece. I do guitar and main vocals, he does bass and some vocals and our friend plays drums. We are recording our demo. The songs are great and I love practicing - recording was much harder - when I have done it in the past it's been on my own, not with someone else watching.

I would love to hear from other people who are in bands or otherwise collaborate musically with their partners! How did it come about? What do you love about it? What do you find difficult? Tell me your stories!

I was also trying to think bands I love who have couples as members - here is a little list and I'd love to hear more:

- Talking Heads

- Dead Moon

- Low

- Dark Thoughts

- Blondie
