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 .
