biographical info
Marching Mind has its humble beginnings way back in 2005 when Chris and
Jeremy met and began writing songs with another band. However, due to
an unfortunate course of events they disbanded, went their separate
ways and resigned to the fact that all hope was lost. These were dark
times. I think I'm gonna cry...
But wait! Years later while Chris had sworn off playing guitar and was
embarking on his career as a bass playing hippie...he received a phone
call from a creatively unfulfilled Jeremy suggesting we "try jamming
again". From that first jam, the undeniable musical chemistry between
Chris and Jer was apparent and Marching Mind was reborn. Eventually,
when they had about an album's worth of songs...they stumbled upon an
amazing bass player (Will) in a band called Ready Rabbit, who added his
own creativity and energy to the songs. The only thing that was missing
was the backbone, the drums.
That all changed when Will brought Seb in for an "audition". It wasn't
much of an audition, since he just seemed to fit in perfectly,
understood immediately what we were trying to do and showed an
unprecedented amount of enthusiasm.
The result is an energetic mix of all our influences over the
years...from 70's progressive rock like Rush, Yes and Genesis to modern
rock influences throughout the early '90's and beyond. Hopefully some
of you like it...but most importantly we're doing exactly what we want
now and having fun doing it...that's all that matters.
