Dead at 27 formed late
in the month of December 2002. As the nights got darker
sooner, and the sensible animals hibernated, four guys with
separate, yet
equally magnificent talents came together and played in unison,
producing some of the
worst sounds known to mankind.
Steve met Paul at a
rock club, but instantly wished he hadn't when Paul promptly
vomitted before him. Paul had just started 6th form where he became
friends with Jonny,
united through their love of music. Jonny had previously encountered
Si and it took some time before the eventually realised that as
they all played
instruments... maybe they should play together.
Steve heard this
commotion over a pot noodle and set out to investigate. Upon
seeing there was no bass player, he turned away is disapointment
before thinking...
"Hey I play bass!" And so the legend began, in the kitchen
unit of an MDF
porta cabin.
They quickly
developed a sense of musical unity and wowed crowds all over town.
The creation of two
EPs helped the band explore new influences, and grow both
musically and in performance. There have been ups, and there have
been downs, and
needless to say, some degree of indigestion followed. The latest
E.P release coincided
with a proposed tour of the Good old North of England, which
should cause much excitement and the proverbial butter of Dead at 27
will spread itself all
over the toast that is England!
So keep an ear to the
ground and we'll be sure to please in the near future.
Until next time
campers, live fast and rock!
