History of the band Dying Instinct
Dying Instinct is a 4 piece hard rock band that came together in Kaohsiung, Taiwan during the summer of 2008. The members of Dying Instinct come from all over the world:
JJ Brent - Lead Vocals
(Canada / Greece)
Fabian de Araujo - Rhythm Guitar / Vocals
(USA / Brazil)
Cary Parrish - Bass
(South Africa)
In the Beginning:
It all started out when (guitarist) Fabian posted an ad. on a local website trying to put together a motorcycle club. Brent, also a motorcycle enthusiast, answered the ad. and the two met up at a local bar to talk about motorcycles. During the conversation they began talking about music and soon discovered that not only did they share a similar interest for motorcylces, but also for rock music. Both, had previously been in original and cover bands as lead singers, and each had a solid foundation in rap music. The same night they talked about putting a band together and writing original music.
It took a few months before they were able to get a hold of a bass player and a drummer, but once they did they started jamming and writing music. Within two weeks Fabian had written 14 original songs and Brent began working on the lyrics. The band was still jamming and focusing on becoming a tight musical unit. After a few weeks had past the band started having some issues with their original bass player. At the same time, Fabian had begun teaching Mandarin-Chinese and through these classes met up with bassist Cary Parish. Cary had previously played with a local band that had released an independant CD, but had since broken up.
The band's original bass player and drummer left the band. So Cary joined the band and thus was born, Dying Instinct!
