NerVer
NerVer is a hard rock band based in Orlando, FL founded by Casey Daniel, a founding, and current, member of the platinum act Seven Mary Three. Starting as a studio project, NerVer released their first single, No Cage, in late 2009 and gained regular airplay on KDJE The Edge in Little Rock (even beating chart toppers Skillet and Adelitas Way in their band to band combat), WDIZ, and several other stations as well as all over the web on online radio. In the fall of 2010, NerVer released their full record "twelve twenty one twenty twelve" to a great critical and fan response. - "The first single No Cage is a hard hitting, radio friendly, bad ass rock tune. You will love this one! We do." Bobby Rees, All Access Music Mag - Then it was time to start getting the full band together to get NerVer in front of live audiences. The band grew quickly adding Jason Spinney on bass and Marshall Hearne on Drums to previous member CodyMac on lead guitar. In late 2011, NerVer took their brand of hard rock to the stage with a headlining gig at The Social, Orlando's premiere club venue. The success of the band's performance at that show led to them being offered the direct support slot for the national headliner for Axis Magazine and WJRR's Orange Avenue Jam on November 5th, 2011 at Wall Street Plaza in Downtown Orlando. Now, the band is booking shows at great venues regularly throughout the Southeast, such as House of Blues Orlando, Backstage Lounge in Gainesville, and Brewster's Pit in Jacksonville, and has been added to the national booking agency Popular Music (popmusiclive.net). NerVer is releasing their follow up effort called "Kings Will Fall" in March of 2012, and the new EP has already started getting great reviews. - "I love their attitude and energy... This is a bloody great hard rock EP my friends." Kaj Roth, melodic.net - NerVer is hitting the road through 2012 in support of this new EP.

Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
About ten years ago I had an excess of material for my other band and decided to put a record together. NerVer got signed to the Indie label S.K.Y. that failed to get the record out and left me with no record after doing all the work. After producing and recording quite a few other acts (including a few nationals) over the past few years, I decided that 2009 was the right time to put a new record together and make sure it was released. That first record "twelve twenty one twenty twelve" put NerVer on the map with airplay on Clear Channel stations, and all across the web. We are now releasing a new EP in March of 2012 called Kings Will Fall, and are hitting the road hard in 2012 to really expose the band to a wider audience.

Music takes a prominent role in NerVer. It is hard rock with a groove and the vocals are all about attitude. We also have a great sense of humor - check out our facebook page bio at http://facebook.com/NerVermusic to get an idea of how we try to not take it all too seriously all the time.
