About Me

Generate your own contact table!


MayOrWest is a five member rock/ post-hardcore group based out of North Jersey/ New York City. Encompassing a wide range of influences and styles, this ensemble is striving to deliver a taste of something new to the scene. This is evident through their fusion of heavy rock and jazz influenced guitars along with a heavy thumping hard hitting rhythm section. Powerful yet catchy lyrics are presented through a lead vocal assault complemented by strong backup.
Since their inception in fall 2005 Pete, Eric, Dylan, Jimmy & Adam have been producing a collection of heavy yet melodic original work which they rock to live audiences with conviction. MayOrWest places a lot of importance on their live act bringing an energetic, well-rehearsed performance to every show. Simply stated the members of MayOrWest have an intense love for playing in front of an audience, an emotion that they wear on their sleeves and use to embrace the crowd.
To date MayOrWest has released two ep records the first of which was their 2006 demo entitled The Path. Not long after recording this first demo the guys got back in the studio to record “Between Chaos and Clarity,” which was completed in early 2007. Currently Adam, Eric, Pete, Dyl, and Jimmy are busy rocking shows throughout the Northeast, and writting tracks for their next record to be recorded in the near future.
