About Me

..This profile was edited with Thomas’ myspace editor™ V2.5 BendaH formed early May 2006 as the result of a conversation between three music students. This three piece hard rock assault play mainly original compositions based on life experiences both good and bad. They draw on influences as diverse as Pink Floyd, The Doors, Deep Purple through to The Sex Pistols and Miles Davis. Ben Shine, Myles O’Flaherty and Ross Irving cover three generations of life and with such a variety of ages within the band, the marriage of the three musicians intrigues, inspires and generates raw energy. Fun, a good time and to rock-out are the fundemental goals of BendaH and they promise to deliver without any hidden messages or covert scripts.
