Collapse

About Me

Collapse are a trio from the surrounding area of Bristol and were formed in late spring 2005 after being at school and 6th form together. They're style of melodic rock maintains all the key elements of classic rock whilst incorporating elements of current popular music. Since they began they have been working hard on new material and have recently recorded their EP, "Letting Go" which you will find on the myspace player.
Since this, Rich has departed the area to study at university, however Collapse wouldn't be the same without any of our members, so despite the distance they're still together and working hard as ever, playing as many gigs as they can with the 200 mile gap.
Collapse are currently working on their new EP - "The Time it Takes" which should be available soon! So watch this space!
