About Me

Well what can we say,
We've been a band a couple of months, it all started when things were not so good for replica.45. Most of the time jay had other thoughts on his mind when he seen graham play the drums. Jay instantly wanted a band with graham,and as replica wernt goin so well jay decided to leave replica to form a new band.
giving birth to a new band Final Strides.
The band was short of members and now recruited Joe Hill to play keyboard and Harry to play bass, due to personal reasons Harry left the band and a bass player was needed. In the meantime so was another guitarist needed.
During this time Phyl and Doug we're trying to form a band called "Broken" due to not having a drummer this band stoped and got offered to join The Final Strides, together the two bands merged together to form one band and now here we are as The Final Strides.
After the first gig, towards the end of May. Keyboard player Joe Hill decided to leave the band, making the final strides now as a 4 piece band. With a smaller amound of members in the band, we are still going to continue and be better then ever!
Are recordings no doubt about it are very poor quality, once we got some solid material we are planning to possibly record some songs professinally in a studio. So im sure that will sound much better then some recordings from some free software which we are currently using.
OUR FIRST GIG. Was amazing. over 500 people, now here. watch!
1. Blues Piece. 2. I bet that you look good on dancefloor.
3. Chasing cars.

Sounds Like: Well we have only been a band for about 3-4 months so we havent really got our 'own sound' we have to say that is to be discovered from us as a band. To gain experience in the band we are playing various covers of songs to get us better as a band and occasionly we will have are own song.

We played out first gig on 11th of May, went fantastic, not one bad comment at all. Which suprised us alot and we are continuing as a band.
