Can I lie on my CV to get me a job?

Use your unpaid work experience and list it as work.
This way you get credit for your work even though it was unpaid.

Also, if you get caught lying it can be cause for losing your job. Once you get a job you don't want to be worrying that you will be found out.

The way you write up your band experience may give you more points for the employer. Did you manage or oversee any people? Did you have any issues you resolved with the band? Did you drive? Did you help set up and break down? Did you do any marketing? Did you sell a CD while you were playing? So, recall what you did and make sure the good points from an employer's point of view are listed.

I would not suggest that you cheat but that you use your creativity to the best of your ability to get a job.

Best wishes.
