Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Formed in the spring of 2007, This project currently is comprised of:
James McNeil (Lead Vocals, guitars) and
Ben Roussel (Lead Guitar, bass, backing vocals).
Responding to an ad on Bandmix.ca, Ben contacted James and arranged a meeting with the other two members of the band. One might say it was fate. Everyone immediately clicked and the band began to take on a purpose.
The nameless group planned out a set list covering other artists which would be performed live but the main focus would be on writing and performing original material. This was established early on and was agreed to by all parties. As the set list began to take shape, the band slowly started to dissolve. There was less and less focus on original songs and much more emphasis placed on getting the "covers" down by the bass player and drummer. Not long after this, the bass player quit leaving a space that needed be filled. Several bass players later, the band appeared to be back on the fast track to success but once again conflict reared its ugly head.
Once on fire, the band now known as Whisper Kill officially came to an end. James and Ben decided to continue to work together and from the ashes arises a new band with a new direction and a new name: 37 Seconds
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We don't play live as of yet. We are working on a demo CD which is taking first priority. Once that is completed we will focus on completing our line-up and then get out there and play.
