The Sims™ 4 Music Expansion Pack
Hey, I've seen a lot of music-related topics here but all of them were about bands so I decided to give my idea of something that would be larger than bands and worthy of an expansion pack instead of ...

Hey, so I'm not entirely sure if EA reads these, but I'd love to share an idea I have for an expansion/game pack. I was looking around the internet (as one does) and I noticed that there were some people that were talking about how there isn't a proper singer career and they were upset that the Get Famous expansion pack didn't include this as a career. I thought about it some, and I think making a new pack based around bands would be a pretty neat addition to the game! Here's what I'm thinking this pack could feature:
Your sims could form a band (of up to 8 sims, maybe) and each have different roles in the band. Such as lead vocalist, guitarist, drummer, bassist, keyboardist, etc. There could also be new instruments added, such as bass guitar, keyboard, drums, saxophone, tuba, and electric violin. Of course, that's just scraping the surface of all the different instruments that could be included, but I think this could be a really good idea. Your band could go on tour, play at local concerts, and have group rehearsals. There could also be a recording studio feature where your sims can go to the studio to record their own tracks and publish them.
I'm thinking your band would start off small, as all bands usually do, and you could look on computers to find gigs at local lounges or clubs to start gathering fame. Maybe you could put up ads online for your shows and invite friends to come and watch your band perform. After each performance, you could get a rating like you do during events such as weddings or dinner parties. If this feature would be included, then during the performances there could be objectives to complete such as riffing on a guitar or the vocalists harmonizing a certain number of times.
I was also thinking about including an independent singer career, so not all sims have to be in a band to get the full singer experience. I don't think much should change based on if you choose to be in a band or independent, but each would definitely have their challenges.
This was just a little idea by me that I've been thinking about for a while, and I definitely had fun thinking about all the different possibilities with an add-on like this. I'd love it if someone from EA actually read it and took it into consideration lol
Have a great day <3
