MEDIUMdave (GIGS UP SOON!)

You haven't won, you're just a little bit stronger

About Me


MEDIUMdave are an energetic 5 piece band from Aylesbury, Bucks, whose unique blend of metal, funk and rap continues to awe audiences from across the south east. 2007 proved itself to be an extremely important year for the Dave, their sound has since become tighter and more refined, and their fan base has begun to spring wider and stronger. With the release of the latest EP "The Return" released late November 07 (available digitally and on CD), Spirits are at an all time high. But as they continue to climb, MEDIUMdave set thier sights for an even more successful year in 2008. The summer brings MD accross the country on their debut UK tour, playing from Bournemouth and Plymouth, all the way up to Liverpool and Manchester. Keep your eyes open! Keep it loud!!

Influences: Reviews: "Their music sounds fast paced and hard-hitting, centring around that metal funk rap vibe.. I could only imagine that after the gigs you wouldn't be able to hear anything else for sometime due to the hard hitting drums, the pumping bass and that rhythm style creating such a tight, refreshing sound. From a young band, this is an achievement on its own. Definately a band to look out for in 2008!"

"Matching incandescent anger with both delicacy and imagination, the instant comparison to draw with the 'funky metal' outfit from Aylesbury would be Rage Against The Machine. With driving, rifling chords and cheeky, sweeping bass tones, they demonstrated a devious complexity, as though they had masterminded their sound with a technical expertise before adding that elusive artistic touch. Lead singer Adam Sawyers used the space as a cathartic release to build on a searing set, bringing a roar out of the crowd that would do any King of the Jungle proud."

"They make funky metal ladies and gents. But it’s not just any old funky metal - oh no, because it’s so outrageously LOUD. Whilst technically each musician was outstanding, special mention must go to drummer Chris Kovacs. It’s not often that the stick man catches your eye but this kid is special. It looked like he’d been playing since he’s been in the womb. Even equipped with the latest line in trendy ear plugs (dirty yellow is this season’s colour), their sound made you shudder. There’s thick rolling bass lines, twiddling, devious riffs and then the caustic, angst ridden beats courtesy of Kovacs. Considering the blistering pace they play their music it has a perfectly pronounced clarity that made others in the genre appear all too clumsy."
