About Me

Greetings. If you hadn't guessed already, we are a band by the name of Above Station ('abovestation' if you prefer sexy lower case presentation - I do). We have been dabbling in musical 'writing' together since the beautiful summer of 2003. One of us is engaged to be wed, another is considerably older (well, 3yrs) than the others, one of us is distantly related to Bob Marley, and one of us is Dutch. None of us has any money. We don't consider ourselves to be specifically 'punk' or 'emo' or 'indie'. I think it's hard to label ones selve. It's safe to say we are just another amateur band, but at least we're not doing this for mad props. We have a lot of fun doing what we do and that's all that matters.
We're currently in the process of pulling together a few new songs, mostly written in the last 6 months(!!).
Iain very occasionally posts new demoes and tidbits on another site known as Cake Attacks Earth
GIG-TYPE INFO - We have all the equipment we need. Our set is about 45mins long, soon to be closer to an hour. We would ideally like gigs in Hants, Berks, maybe Surrey and definitely anywhere near Cardiff as it is our Mecca.
