Epico

About Me

Epico is:Matt Stubbins – vocals Richard Buchan – bass Mark Johnson – drums Dave Golding – guitars & backing vocalsEpico formed early in the spring of 2006. Dave and Mark previously played in two Medway-based bands together (Faker and Whisperkill) and decided, after a two-year hiatus, to start another band. They found Dan via an internet site advert, who then drafted in Matt, the singer in his then current band. In his first ever band (all those years ago) Dave played with Rich and after an even longer musical hiatus (touching on 10 years) Rich dusted off his trusty Rickenbacker and joined Dave, Mark, Dan and Matt to complete Epico.After an intense period of writing and recording, Epico booked studio time at the Sunlight Studio in Gillingham and recorded the three tracks that comprise their debut E.P. “Salidas”.Dan left in December 2006 and Epico refined its sound and continued writing.In May 2008 they released their debut album, “Black Motif”. And all of a sudden a profusion of new songs are in various states of production, vying with each other to be included on the forthcoming second album. Whenever that may be…The music is all original songs written by the band, influenced by a variety of groups such as A Perfect Circle, Pearl Jam, Tool, Biffy Clyro and the mighty Oceansize.

Not that it's my hair you ladies are commenting on (probably just as well) but Mark (drummer) is not ginger. They are, in fact, very clever and bold-looking streaks. That aren't ginger. I'm sure for a...
