team arija
Hi, we're arija. our home is Reading, our lives are music and our shoes are great.
It's been a very long time coming and we're playing as a 3-piece, short of a singer and second guitarist. The choice is we either sit around in our studio practicing and never find the rest of the band or we get out there, play some shows and meet new people. We opt for the latter. So, bring a friend and come say hi to us :D
We're currently working on a few new tracks - yes, it's been ages since we recorded any new songs, because we've been so busy with other things like building the studio, but keep an eye and an ear open for new things soon.
We're looking for 2 musicians to join us in writing, playing, and having great times - guitar and vocals. Please, if you like the sound of our music and think you could get along with us (we're nice people, honest), then drop us an email. we want to be playing now and we want to have the best time with the best guys there are. also... you need to be a guitarist or vocalist...

Why this name?
its a girls name - and its nice
Do you play live?
Yes - Mainly in the Reading / Berkshire area...
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
we think mp3's are great. a lot more people get to hear music they otherwise wouldnt go near because of the internet and mp3's. the industry needs to stop complaining that more people are getting into music - it wont stop people buying the band's cd or going to see them live if they really like them.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes
