There is loooads to say and no time to say it.....

So we will just say this .......

we have been together now for 3 years, been on this site for 3 years, when we started we didn't know anything about the music biz, but 3 yrs down the road, we know its a dirty backstabbing minefield, full of false promises and we have met plenty of A&R muppets who dont have any balls and are just yes men sh*** scared of loosing their job - BUT there are some great people in the industry and some great bands out there.

Gone are the days that every band needs a label ( but it does help lol )

So what about us then...

Our music has changed since we have grown up ( if you call 18 being grown up haha ), We write more in your face songs ( in a nice way hopefully ), We gig everywhere ( 300 + gigs over the 3 yrs ), Weve been on the TV, made music video's, supported big bands, won lots of competitions and a load of other blah blah blah ( visit www.area15.co.uk for the full picture )
Why this name?
Choose the band name when we were 15, was told to think hard about it as it will be our brand name - now we hate it, but cant think of anything else.. so if you have a name in mind for us ( no personal attacks ;please lol ) let us know.. we want something that still has "area" in it if poss...
Do you play live?
We live in Yorkshire in the UK

Any special moment - to many to mention and it would sound like we were bragging haha
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet and mp3's has put the power into the hands of the bands, and it will only get better...
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If a record label approached us we would obviously really consider it. Weve had quite a few smaller labels wanting to work with us and release some of our stuff, and we have got some serious interest at the moment from a couple of majors and some well respected publishing companies. I would like to think that we wouldn't just jump in feet first with a major, but we probably would ...lol

Were talking to a UK Independant label right now..so watch this space dude's
Band History:
History..we got together around November 2004, first gig February 2005.
