MyGen Profile GeneratorHijack the Bride formed as the summer approached in 2006 as a creative partnership and friendship between Paul Black, Mark Douglas, Chris Allen, Martin McGrotty and Aaron McNeill. The band was intended to be an acoustic two-piece starring Paul and Mark. This initial concept did not take long to change when Martin was introduced as an additional guitarist. It was only then that Hijack The Bride was thought as possibly being the band that is now; a ‘schizophrenic tea party’, a mixture of hard-hitting and vigorous riffs, atmospheric instrumental build-ups, spectacular vocals, off-beat and energetic drums and vibrant bass chords throughout. Hijack the Bride have Recently went through alot of changes in the past four months... With the departure or Paul and Ali the band was soon to regroup and get back on their feet, Douger taking up the mic and becoming lead singer and drummer Dave McLaughlin been drafted into the band we were set to go again. The band then began to write new songs as a four piece, wrote and recorded 5 new songs, the EP has not yet been released due to another change in the line up..... Local guitarist Johnny Lowe has been introduced into the band on guitar and backing vocals, with the new line up the band had only 3 days before our first gig (see blog for details) we practiced frantically to gel together as a band. Currantly the band are working on alot of stuff, changing old songs, writing new ones and rebuilding a name for ourselves Hijack The Bride are still a band to keep an eye on, so thanks to everyones support this far its been appreciated by all the band.
