I’ve worked in the music industry full time for 10+ years, worked with countless musicians and I’ve found “being a musician” to be pretty useless in terms of whether I get a long with someone lol
I think fundamentally interest in music is just too broad a category to meaningfully be useful. Everyone likes music and tons of people from all walks like it enough to get into playing it.
We can talk about some music stuff but outside of that it can get stale, and tbh in all my years I’ve never met someone who I was aligned with politically. I’ve gotten close but most people are reactionary chuds and libs and so are most musicians
Since covid risks are dying down and live music is coming back, I'm gonna try to attend a monthly manouche night that's local, maybe get the nerve to join for some songs.

The rant was very much anecdotal, I've also got a lot less experience than you obviously.
I do enjoy the conversation I sparked though.
For sure mine is as well. I may have had a bit better luck but I’ve met tons of dumbasses who happened to be musicians lol.
Hope you find some like minded musicians soon. Maybe there will be some at a local org or something?
