Spires

About Me



Spires was initially concieved in 2004, as the brainchild of Paul Sadler (ex In Silence/Tomb), when he decided to take a hell of a long time writing and recording some songs. He was later joined by Paul Cuthbert on guitar (ex Nailed/Sermon of Hypocrisy), Alex Jolley on Bass, and after a frustratingly long wait, Chris Barnard on drums.

Since late 2008, Spires have been playing throughout the Northwest and Yorkshire, drumming up enthusiastic support along the way. The response so far has been fantastic, so check out the gig dates over the next few months, and prepare yourselves for some epic proggy noodlings!
