The Time Is Now

About Me

Hollowed Soul is made up of five musicians from the ashes of their previous bands. Derek DaPrano and Levon Grice (formerly of Undisclosed) stuck together to search for musicians w/ similar tastes. Matt Crossley saw the ad that the band had posted on myspace and tried out for the vocal slot and locked that spot in w/ his sense of attitude & performance. After a few early shows, Mark Deblois checked one out and decided that this was the band. So he contacted the members and it was determined that he was the missing link in the percussin section. Later on Chris Miller also wanted in. So they tried him out. Only to find out that having a second guitarist was not a bad idea. It brought thickness to the sound...
...Henceforth the band remains a strong fine tuned machine- a unit if you will. Merging their cover material as well as their powerful originals that will capture any audience. They are "Bringing the Metal back into your world" as they call it. If you have not caught them live yet, be sure to check them out as the local newspaper "the Leaf Chronicle" labeled them as one of the best bands in the area. Until then...We shall see you all soon............

-Matt Crossley- Vocals- Matt comes to the band from Dallas, Texas where he sang for the band, Solareye. This started his hard rock/metal feel that would bring him to Nashville to have an opportunity to become the frontman of a new band. Matt was contacted and got the gig. Matt likes to sing, write music, play instruments, and likes to play video games only when he has nothing to do.

-Levon Grice- Guitar- Levon has been playing guitar since he was thirteen. He received a computer science degree from Austin Peay State University, where he also minored in music. His influences include Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Alice in Chains, Sevendust. Levon has played in many of other local bands such as Slopjar and Undisclosed. Levon currently resides in Clarksville, Tennessee with his wife and daughter.

-Chris Miller- Gutiar- Chris is a man of the arts. He began playing music at around 5 yrs old and went on the road playing 5 nights a week by age 19 after seven years of hoofing it around the US and overseas he took a break. Branching out his creativity with painting, sculpting, and various other types of art which eventually led him into the tattoo scene. Which is currently what he does now, along with jamming out in Hollowed Soul.

-Mark Deblois- Drums- Mark is a very talented musician. After catching one of the early Hollowed Soul shows he decided that this was the band for him. He has been playing drums since he was a child. He has played in several others bands in the Clarksville area such as SkullKap, Too Boo Coo, Driven, Division 16, and Wet Kitty. His influences include Pantera, Metallica, Sevendust, Van Halen, and Rush. Mark's dynamics and attack on the drums are enough to grab anyone's attention.

-Ricky Watson- Bass- Ricky has been playing bass for seven years now. He has been palying in numerous bands throughout his career. He had learned to play funk, jazz, classical, and blues during his years playing with his cousin, Vincent Hearing. He has been playing for 8 years and fate has brought him to Hollowed Soul. With a 5 string Squire bass, a 115 Peavy TKO Knockout Amp, and a 4x10 bass cabinet, he delivers a melodic assault to the Clarksville scene.
