BLACKWEED

carving deeper lines in these scars of sorrow

About Me

BLACKWEED 664A FREEMAN LANE 165 GRASS VALLEY, CA 95949Blackweed is a hard rock/heavy metal band pounding their way into the local music scene. Residing in Grass Valley, California, Blackweed is known for their live performances over the past four years, delivering the sound and intensity you would expect from only big bands today. Heavy guitar riffs, shredding solos, thick and punchy bass lines, powerful vocals and drums, and lots of crowd intervention are what you witness at a Blackweed show. Blackweed is making an impact with songs like SCARS OF SORROW, featured on Sacramento radio 98 ROCK local licks this year. In film, heavy son, THE DIFFERENCE, was used in the independent horror film, "Suspense of Belief", a film by Mantis productions in the fall of 2007. MARCH OF WAR and BIRTH are two favorites, giving fans a broad range of styles. Blackweed has made several appearances in N.C. Monthly magazine, owned by friend and fan Ron Quintana, creator of Metallica's name. With nearly 12,000 views on Myspace.com, Blackweed will be in the studio recording an EP, entitled DESTRUCTION OF STATE, due to be finished by the summer of 2008."We love performing live, and we are glad to have made it this far. We want to be professional with our shows and equipment, and make the fans feel good. No matter what happens, we just want to get our music out there, to give to the world a taste of BLACKWEED."BLACKWEED IS: Chris Burgin - vocals, guitar Adam Wilkison - lead guitar Dave Martinell - bass guitar Iain Hicks - drumsBooking Contact info: 530-575-5778 530-559-7661DESTRUCTION OF STATE
