Welcome back rock n' roll. Deepset is the rock band you've been waiting for... no screaming... no drop D tuning... no rock n' rap crap... straight ahead, ass kicking, jack drinking, jaw dropping rock n' roll!
Why this name?
A band makes the name... come on, Pink Floyd? If it was the other way around would you still be listening to Dark Side of the Moon???
Do you play live?
We play out all over Florida... my favorite moment was sharing the stage with Nicko McBrain from Iron Maiden for some serious MAIDEN MADNESS!!!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It comepletely changed it for me as a consumer. Someday I hope to know first hand how it affects musicians too!!!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Come on... anybody who says they wouldn't is full of crap or retarded. Shave my head for a deal? Eat worms? Sell my sister into slavery? Umm, okay, where do I sign?
Band History:
Deepset is a modern day “Hard Rock Band” with musicianship and attitude hard to find in today’s scene. "The hardest partying band is South Florida" Deepset never disappoints with their music or the after-party. The killer vocals of front man Jonathan Murphy are a breath of fresh air in a time when “singers” don’t sing, they grunt or scream. Guitarist Rick Baum has the rare ability to combine a metal edge with smooth melodies and brings showmanship back to the role of lead guitar. The thundering rhythm section of Marcus Suarez and Dave "The Beast" Spitz (formerly of Black Sabbath) are the backbone of the Deepset experience. Deepset gained international attention recently when Jonathan, Rick and Dave joined Nicko McBrain from Iron Maiden for a tour of North America in a project called McBrain Damage.
Your influences?
Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Bon Jovi??? We have so many influences, it's hard to narrow it down. We love actually playing our instruments, we're not afaid of solos or ballads and there's not one scream anywhere on the album!!!
Favorite spot?
Any bar with real Kentucky bourbon.
Equipment used:
Gibson, Marshall, Ampeg, Shure, Fender, Paiste, Premiere, Jagermeister, Makers Mark and Cabo Wabo!
