KAVUS

About Me

O.k. So David and Nik have been playing together off and on since post-high school. They formally met while playing for the band, "Thantoses Dream," which since then has turned into "Evade" then became "All Things Considered." David realized that his passion and strong-suit was mainly in acoustic rock music. He, therefore, went to pursue a solo project known as "Kampus Project." Already having played in ATC with Nik, he recruited Nik for the aforementioned project along with Kelly Yacono on vocals for a couple of tracks. Due to David's insanity and "salt imbalance," Kampus Project has since then disbanded. Knowing that a slew of tracks along with a 3-song demo was floating out in both cyberspace and on obsolete coffee tables, David's musical itch (and only that itch) was growing at a very rapid pace. As a result, David talked Nik into resurrecting the old originals once again and to give it another "go." This time, however, the two decided to "trim the fat," (as "they" say) and to play with only what was absolutely necessary. Hence, the set-up and music of "KAVUS." (This bio subject to change without further notice. Why? 'Cause...do I really need to explain why? Peace.) p.s. Looking to record with new set-up fairly soon. In the meantime, enjoy the studio cuts from our previous recordings and let us know what you think. Later.
