How did the band come to be and where did it all begin?
( Tommy Gammon / Drums) Well, Nutzie sent me a message asking if I was still drumming, from that we were back and forth talking about genres and the possible members.
( Miles Rushworth / Bass) It all started about two years ago for me when Nutzie asked me if I wanted to start a band with him. After a short hunt to find some other suitable musicians we found Lee and Gammon, who decided to get on board and bring some epic riffs and monster beats to the mix.
( Lee Stockwell / Guitar) Me and Tom have known each other for years, we went to the same school and had been in bands together before. I met Nutzie at a mutual friend’ s house party one night but had seen him and heard of him before. We got talking and he said that him and Tom were looking to start a band, and asked if I wanted to play guitar, as Tom had mentioned me in a previous conversation between them. After a few more conversations with him, he said that his cousin Miles played bass and that he was looking at maybe bringing us all together seems as they had been trying to form a band. I already had a few ideas written down guitar-wise, so by the time our first practice ended, we had a complete song minus lyrics which you may now know as“ Where I Stand”. Everything just seemed to click into place after that and now we are all here.
( Nutzie Shelley / Vocals) After leaving Create Chaos I was always looking at trying to start a band where the music felt more suited for my vocal style and attitude was a better fit. I asked Miles( who also used to play in Create Chaos and is my cousin as well) if he would like to start up a band and how we would like it to be? After sending a few messages here and there and talking to various people I got passed on Gammons details, who seemed more than happy at the prospect of playing the type of music I had in mind. He then mentioned that he knew of a few guitarists and that he had one in mind that he used to work with. It was left at that and just by sheer coincidence me and Lee ended up meeting at a house party one evening, got talking about the band I had been trying to set up and I suggested he should come jam with us some time as we hadn’ t even had a first practice between me Gammon and Miles? He seemed eager and we all went from there really. Although, the first practice wasn’ t exactly text book lol.
