The Band
Almost Autumn were formed in early 2007 to help fill the huge devoid of progressive/metal bands with Scottish origins. Jamie Moffat and faithful drummer David Campbell started the search for fellow musicians in February, and, luck would have it, Bobby Lindsay was on the look for a new band as his last one was less than musically rewarding. Mark McMillian was found by chance and joined in July 2007. The band met once in Lo-fi studios and they hit it off. Unfortunately other things took priority. Jamie was attempting to juggle a job, the band and his University work. Admittedly the band had came to a stand still exisiting merely in name. Mark found better opertunities else where and is now touring from what I've heard. We wish him the best of luck.Jamie is now unemployed and is coming to the accademic year with about five months of nothing to do there's never been a better time to try and get the band back on the go.

Singer Needed!
We are currently on the lookout for a vocalist - whether male or female please get in touch! All we ask is that you have some sort of demo ready. It would also be nice if you had some sort of songwriting skill but it's not vital. We think that a female vocalist would place an interesting slant on the prog metal formula so please don't hesitate.
We're not really on the lookout for any more members, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't get in contact. Perhaps you've been playing prog since the age of four and see yourself as some kind of prodigy. Who are we to tell you that you can't let us hear you? A second keyboardist may add an interesting flavour but this is not really vital as we already have a perfectly capable keysman.
If anyone is interested, and feels their up to the challenge, please contact Jamie, Bobby, David or contact the band via this Myspace.
Our Sound
We hope this band will be mainly focusing on a progressive/rock/metal sound that is a medium between the old styles of classic prog (Rush/Marillion/Yes) and the more modern styles of rock and metal (Dream Theater, Ayreon, Symphony X, Riverside)
A word from Jamie...
Hey people. It's all looking good for us the moment. For an explanation as to how the name Almost Autumn got chosen then check out the blogs. We've been in the studios and its seems like we'll all get along fine. Hopefully future ventures into the soundproof room will be more productive and less of a bonding time and I'm looking forward to some routine.Right, once again if there's anyone interested then please get in contact I ain't stopping you but please have something we can hear. We're not just taking your word for it at this stage.
Later
Jamie
