Nagasaki Simbriots

About Me

The Nagasaki Simbriots formed in August 2006 with just 3 band members, Chris Hooks (guitar + vocals), Lee Darley(guitar + voclas) and Glenn Calder (drums) Chris played with lee in a band called Escobar and also in a band he formed with Glen called Holme-House non of which worked out, so after around a year of Lee and Chris playing their own acoustic songs around the local circuit, and Glen playing with his brothers band Molten Gold, the 3 decided to form their own band, and after just 3 weeks of rehersing songs, no band name, no bass player and no real structure to their songs were asked to fill in at a battle of bands, the gig was pretty much 'winged' from the start but ended up coming runners up which made us all think " i think we're on to something " and what was suppost to be a comedy name just for the battle of the bands the 'Nagasaki Simbriots' has stuck with us ever since. Since then all was good apart from one problem, no bass player and after trying out a couple of others, along came Bob replying to an add we left up in our local, The Studio. He fitted straight in with our sound with excitement and enthusiasm which was the missing link in the band at the time !!! (The Nag Sims) class their music as alt. indie. blues rock, (if that makes any sense) with an original sound mixed with influences of old and new and have created a great local following, following a string of successful gigs in the north east area. Things are going from good to better for them and as it's the main ambition in all their lives, to create music to be listened to by the many, they are surely set for big things, sooner rather than later !!! Come and listen for yourself !!!!New Ep featuring our newest and best tracks so far will be out soon, were just waiting on the mixing to be completed. MyGen Profile Generator
