Praedabundus
Behold, the bass. Behold, the recording program. Let an overanalyzing, overeating teen kid use them and you have a very odd combination of sounds. Ben Morse, the mind behind the music, is doing his best to create a new and generally unused sound; mixing funk, grunge, and experimental rock. Kevin, an old friend from highschool, and Mark, a fellow natickian, are now in the band, creating an amazing team of musicians to create the greatest experience the music world has heard.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Fall '05 - Praedabundus is started, on the computer in ben's room with a tiny little computer mic.
Winter '05 - Ben gets the help of Isaac O'Keefe to do some drumming for two songs.
Early '06 - Mark Joins Ben as guitarist.
Spring 06 - kevin becomes drummer and collaborator
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I would love to play live, and there are upcoming shows at the Natick Common(free) a graduation party, and maybe at westgate church. Also, we may have a show in attleboro in July.
