THEYWEREGUNSHOTS

I need you to warm me, you need us to burn - EP

About Me

Theyweregunshots were formed in the winter of 2002. In the beginning were only 2 members, Marco Cabaço (guitar) and João Mota (drums). After composing some songs the other musicians came in - Bruno Vitorino (guitar), Francisco Petrucci (vocals) and João Gazua (bass). Unfortunately Theyweregunshots suffered the first lost early. João Mota one of the formers had to abandon the ship. Another drummer came - João Maria. With him we recorded Lightomotive (one song demo) and gave our first concerts. But he didn’t stay for to long. So we were in 2004 with some music, ready to start giving more shows and without a drummer, once again. Oh well...
Ricardo Martins came, he learned all the songs and then we started with the shows. We shared the stage with bands like Confronto, Day of the Dead, If Lucy Fell, Larkin, Grog, Namek, Blacksunrise, One Hundred Steps, Afganistan Ye Ye’s, etc... And then we wanted to record our first Ep, but something went wrong and the band fallen apart.
So at this time Theyweregunshots were Marco Cabaço (guitar) and João Gazua (bass). They didn’t want to give it up. So once again the band started from the begining, Marco Cabaço spends the next year composing new fresh songs. Later Ita come as drummer and Jorge Ferreira as vocalist. New songs are rehearsed and then recorded into the Ep “I need you to warm, you need us to burn”. The years passed by and now we finally have our Ep and we are ready to start giving some big steps.
