How did the band first come together? Aaron: I had just parted ways from a previous band and had wrote a good number of demos on a Tascam digital 8 track. I eventually got bored of writing music by myself, so I put up a few posts on social media and stumbled upon Michael, our drummer. When we first met up I felt we both knew that we could create something special so after a few rehearsals we started to hold auditions for a Bassist and Lead Guitarist. We auditioned some good musicians, but it wasn’t until Michael suggested we try out his long-term friend Andrew that we knew we had found our Guitarist. Getting a bassist was actually the harder part. After trying out a couple of guys we were pointed in the direction of Jason. As soon as we had a rehearsal with him we could see the passion he had and we embraced that. We soon got up to scratch and booked our debut gig in a place called MadHatters in Inverness. What are your musical influences? Aaron: They vary quite a bit! Feeder, You Me @ 6, Twin Atlantic, Metallica, Fightstar and a whole lot more, but to list them all would take a long time, haha. LOL. A whole edition dedicated to musical influences. I could see that.
