Words From The Front . . .


Hey, I'd like to say hello, I am Curly, the new lead singer with Desolation Angels.

It's a privilege to be a part of this great band, helping to take it forward, contributing to writing new material whilst maintaining the quality, drive and energy that has appealed to and rocked fans in the UK, Europe and the U.S. since the 1980's!

The first DA track I listened to was 'Fury' and it blew me away! I had just completed 30hrs recording at a studio in Birmingham and the record company who hired me were dicking me about and trying to wriggle out of paying me. The lyrics of 'Fury' expressed the aggression and rage that was welling up inside me, I wanted to hurt these f-ckers, make their lives a misery for what they were trying to do to me. We have all had times in our lives when at some point we felt we could lose it, and 'Fury' said it all for me; this is when I realised I was on the same wave length as DA and could relate to what this band was all about, raw, living breathing emotion, expressed through explosive, heavy riff driven rock n roll!

I spent a couple of months learning lyrics for my audition and when the day came I was blown away by the thunderous 'live' sound of DA in the studio and the sheer power and energy that they deliver!

The rest of the band and I hit it off straight away and I knew the audition had gone well when Rob said "You are so right for this band, this wasn't like an audition, it was like we were rehearsing after you had been with the band for a few months!"

So, here I am, a cold can of cider in hand, all fired up n ready to get out there fronting the awesome 'Desolation Angels'! I drink to your health and look forward to  sharing a few cold ones with you at our live shows in the UK, Europe, U.S. and beyond!

Rock on, 

Curly
