About Me

I edited my profile with Thomasâ€™ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
JAW... formed as a 2 piece early in 2003, wrote and recorded their debut album "Food For Thought" and released it on their own label "Thirty Seven Records" in the spring of 2004. Since then they have evolved into a full live band and have playing constantly for the last year.In their relatively short life span as a live band they have built up a very impressive CV of shows. Last year they supported "D-12", "Lady Sovereign" and "Therapy?" as well as playing the Tenants "ViTal" festival with the likes of "The Darkness" and "Jurassic 5". In 2005 they have played two of the UK's most prestigious festivals, "Glastonbury" and "Donnington (Download Festival)" as well as opening for Jurassic 5 in Dublin.Although busy working on their new album, the summer is already setting hectic schedule with confirmation on this years Fflam festival in Whales and well a two week Irish tour with Mike Got Spiked and Mojo Fury. Compared to the bands previous material, which had been recorded by just two of the now four members, the new material is an overall progression sonically and lyrically. The experience gained over the last two years recording and playing live has helped the band evolve onto a whole new level and proved that their existence in playing something totally unique and original is absolutely necessary!
