The Bluesmiths Band was established in the beginning of 2007 by Michael J. With the band continuously changing around throughout 2007 the band now is in a comfortable state of musical exploration and creation. Michael J, the founder of the band had known each of the other members as either school mates or distant friends.Ben had stepped in to play drums on a few gigs I had in the summer of 2007 which he kindly helped out with. From then on Ben and I started jamming loads in my garage simply recording anything in our heads and jamming it out till early hours of the morning. We did this for a good few months and then I asked if he would like to join the group. Ben is seriously a power house of a drummer and really brings a lot of energy to our performances.Having known Isfandyar since year 10 we have grown up playing guitar together and sharing our musical ideas. He had also been in a band with Ben called ‘Disconnekted’ so they were more than comfortable with each others abilities. Isfand was eager at the time to start performing so it was pretty much perfect timing. As much as this is a great experience for Isfand to be performing, it’s also a learning curve as he’s had an up bringing of heavy metal and has now made a drastic yet comfortable transition into traditional blues and free jazz.Daniel was a good friend of mine back in year 12 when we used to study music together and I always wanted to play music with him when I heard him singing for the first time. When we finally got together to jam I knew after that that he had to be the other ingredient in the band. He really has everything I could ask for in a singer, his voice has so much soul and feeling to it I feel it goes perfect with the music we perform. Aside from that he has so much charisma………he makes the rest of us look cool.Words by Michael J
