-WMP- is one of the premiere original rock bands in the Tampa Bay area. Their unique blend of music rooted in rock, metal, blues, reggae, funk and acoustic stylings makes them one of the must-see live acts in the local music scene.
The band -WMP- signifies one thing: GREAT MUSIC. Each band member brings their own distinct creative vision and abilities to the table. From within their collective vision comes the sound of original rock and roll.
Drummer Kyle McDowell and Guitarist Justin Culley began their musical journey over 10 years ago after meeting in Junior High School. During the ensuing decade, the musical roots of the band began to form. At the start of 2007, the two musicians found the ideal frontman for -WMP- in James Crayton. Along with providing a much needed change of face, James brings his own unique vocal styles and in-your-face attitude to the band. From the fusion of these elements emerges a dynamic group of musicians ready to lead rock and roll back to the forefront of music in the new millenium.
The band is currently in the process of self-recording and producing their extensive back catalog of written music. From these 30+ songs, the band is planning to release a 3-song CD including the following tracks: "Highway 88", "Calm Before the Storm", and "The Light". CD's and digital downloads will be available Summer '07.
