Tracing Lines formed in Sydney in 2004, they started as an acoustic duo with Mark and Ash playing zelously around the Sydney pub Open Mic nights.
Soon after Ash's school mate Luke joined the band where a dramatic change took place. Luke's dynamic heavy and complex beats, Mark's soulful voice and Ash's funky rhythm drove Tracing Lines to a unique sound which has been played around Sydney for the last 3 years. They have played at venues such as the Cat & Fiddle, the Lansdowne Hotel the Vic on the Park among others. Mark: Vocals/Guitar: Is a trained musician, chorally trained, who has played with several bands around Sydney over the past 14 years. His experience has brought much diversity to his music and songwriting abillity. The perfect middle man for the beats and rhythm in the band. Luke- Drums: Also played in several bands around Sydney, Lukes main influences sprung from heavy metal. His fast and complex playing was a perfect starting ground for his diverse style. Jazz, funk and rock is what comes out in Tracing Lines this style of playing leaves plenty of room for Luke and Ash improvise. Ash - Bass- With over 11 years experience playing bass, Ash has played in over 10 bands around sydney. He finally found the band that was perfect for him. Starting off playing Grunge, Ash then found a passion for funk bass. Not happy just playing one style of music he looked for a musician that could cater for all. After seeing Mark's ad in Drum Media Clasifieds Ash auditioned got the part and since then everything gelled. We hope you will enjoy Tracing Lines' unique heavy rock and storytelling-folk influenced rock/funk/jazz combination.
