About Me


Last Breath Bio
We have recently been trying to sell as many copy's of our music as possible. We have also sent these copys out to Record Companies and Radio Stations. On April 5th 2009 we had an interview at a radio staion and performed the song "The Prophecy". This was actually the first time we had ever played this song live. We were told that there was 60,000 listeners that evening. If you want to hear this interview and perfomance simply scroll down the page. So at the moment we are not doing too bad but we need all your help and support to get to that main goal which is to be a succesful rock band! Rock on Baby!!!
We are a four piece Melodic Rock band from sunny Blackpool. Music is our lives and we intend to make sure it stays that way. We have played all over the North West and with catchy rock pop hooks and low tuned rock riffs we believe our music is ready to be heard by you.
Last Breath started back in 2003 with Tom & Mike. They were good buddies and used to cut school to jam Metallica favourites in the garage . They had got the taste for the rock/metal scene and decided to make a band, along with school mate Daniel Capper on rhythm. Daniel was the one to come up with the name “Last Breath”. None of them could sing so Tom asked his brother James if he was interested. With almost a full line up, James asked his friend Ant to play bass.It was pretty much a meat and potato rock band, jamming covers doing local gigs here and there., but we had developed a hunger and wanted more. Tom & James started to write their own material but unfortunately the band fell apart leaving just Tom, James & Mike. The creativity was still flowing and with replacements here and there we managed to get along until one day when Tom left. James refused to give in and wrote half an album worth of songs and together with Mike they found Guitarist/Bassist Jim Gradwell. He slotted in well and quickly they were back up and running with a friend to fill in on bass called Chris Phelen.All was well again, Tom re-joined Last Breath and we became a more melodic, harmonised band. Soon after, Chris left the band due to creative differences and Jim took on the role of Bass guitar.
