In life, some projects succeed and many fail, and rarely are we given a second chance to follow our dreams. So when such an opportunity presents itself, it's foolish not to jump at it. Taking that leap is precisely what the members of Pursive have done.
In 2001, three young men formed the band A.D.S. Even though the band was around for a mere 8 months, they accomplished what many bands fail to do after much longer. They developed a solid fan base, recorded a successful, self produced EP, and played numerous well attended shows before deciding to go separate ways... The experience of writing, recording and performing was something the trio never forgot... Seven short years later, having never forgotten the connection they had together, the guys of A.D.S. decided to give it another go with a fresh start. With added maturity, a great deal of experience and practice Pursive has developed a distinct sound that derives from many influences, yet feels completely original. From dance rock to jazz to punk and even contemporary, all music serves as an inspiration for this band.
"We're all much more solid players and a way more motivated this time arround!" says the lead guitarist Josh. With their drive, their talent as song writers and the energy they bring to the table, Pursive is a huge new force on the field, and a sound to be heard.
