deadswitch
deadswitch... solid, somber, to the point metal.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
tony & i (andy) have been writing songs together since the summer of 2000. we've played in a lot of bands together & met a lot of great people along the way. our past bands include the likes of linchpin, unsound, obsolete & silent mistress.in mid june 2005 keyboardist matt kidson joined us, helping further develop what has become our trademark sound.deadswitch is currently just the three of us locked away in a small studio working on the music that we love. we've gone back to our roots & couldn't be more happy.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
we have nothing on our plate right now. currently we're working on a 5 song EP that should be out sometime in august 2005. our plans after that include the completion of a full length album & possible tour.

Anything else?
our life (so far) on internet radio has been amazing!!! thanks so much to aiiradio for playing us! we've been on the top ten there for some time & here's hoping for a lot more success. also, soundclick has opened up more possibilities for us than we ever could have dreamed of... "name of desire" spent 3 months in the top 100 & right now "dark days ahead" is burning up the charts!
