VASEY are a British band with a massive, yet dynamic, modern rock sound.
Formed by Karl Vasey in 2010, VASEY were brought together through
mutual friends, all of whom were a part of the thriving Nottingham music
scene.
November 2013 saw the release of their debut album “Be
Someone Else” - a life affirming, guitar driven record that is almost
cinematic in tone. Created by singer/songwriter Karl
Vasey, drummer Aidan Hunnisett, guitarist Ben Perdue and bassist David
Amar, “Be Someone Else” wrangles angst and emotion from each of its 11
tracks.
The song “Write a New End” found its way onto the
soundtrack of the indie movie: “The Devil’s Tower” starring Jason Mewes
(Clerks, Jay and Silent Bob) whilst the video for the single “The
Otherside” enabled VASEY to lay the foundations for a small, but loyal
following. Accompanying the album’s release, videos for the songs “Fade
Out” and “Fiction” showcase the diversity of a band aiming to
capitalise on their evident public interest (immortalised in an American
fan’s tattoo of the band’s moniker).
2013 saw VASEY play a
number of gigs and low key acoustic shows concluding with a festival
appearance, playing to 2,000 music lovers in attendance. With the new
year came a new band member in the form of guitarist/pianist Rolz
Guilford. Rolz added another dimension to the band's live sound and
allowed them to recreate more of the recorded elements heard on "Be
Someone Else".
Brimming with confidence, VASEY eagerly look
towards hitting the road with the new line up and seeing what the future
holds in store…
