The Era

About Me

The Band were formed in early 2003, with original members chris, rob, martyn and dave, playing covers and messing around with early songs, in martyns bedroom. It took nearly a year for the band to find a suitable drummer, once they did they started to write proper songs and think about playing them live.They played live for the first time in mid 2004 and never looked back, appearing at the waterfront twice and the arts centre twice, probably there highest point, supporting Yeti there in 2005. Since then the band has seen two original band members leave, the brothers hannant, this due to a lack of commitment and interest.The other three members soon found suitable replacements and looked all set to carry on in 2006, when drummer Sean Coates pulled out for personal reasons. This caused a major reshuffle in the band which has taken over a year to get right, firstly James 'Meathead' Cowling (Lead) & Rob 'Bobbo' Nichols (bass) were brought in & joined by Sebastian 'Sebba' Sandell (drums). However due to a lack of experience, Seb pulled out, saying he felt he was slowing the band down.A workmate of Rob's Joe Harkness stepped up to the kit & gave a tremendous performance in his first practise to cement his place as new drummer. Since the middle of 2007 the band have dropped the original music and have written a whole new set, each song full off swagger and attitude that will rip your bollocks off.As off the beginning off 2008 the band are performing and in the recording studio are are set to rule the world .
