Seek Out Ships

About Me

S.O.S. was formed when long-time friends/band-members David Daix and Chris Poirrier opted to get back together for just one last light-hearted musical adventure. After years of playing in 4 and 5 piece bands, and all the struggles that come with holding such outfits together, the boys decided to purge themselves of past frustrations, clear the rubble of fallen empires, and form a simple two-piece pop-rock brotherhood (like Double Dragon, but with music instead of martial arts, and normal clothes instead of red and blue jumpsuits.)
Now, 4 years later, they are at it again. Embracing the complication they once sought to abandon, and forsaking the very tenets that once forged the foundation of this new order, the 'Seek Out' boys have joined forces with a bass player. Mark Scott, an unsung hero of the music scene, hailing from Dominion, where he feeds the hungry mouths of starving musicians with high quality recordings at a low price, has drawn his sword and raised it with Seek Out Ships in a great clang. In doing so, Mark has accidentally completed an ancient musical triforce, whereby simple songs may take on new depth and proportion.
Now here they stand, three musical renegades poised on the edge of a new adventure. Will thier quest to maintain peace thoughout the Kingdom of Seekonia succeed? Only the gods could forsee.
