The Prince The Prince
This one is so far solely performed by Jake, but as most of the music, will have the rest of the band added to it. Very sparkly...
Sweetheart (extended) Sweetheart (extended)
The first minute and 30 seconds are the same but the rest is all new vocal performances including Ashley for the first time giving an astounding delivery. It is also about 25 seconds longer than the original.
Pounding Pounding
A splendid ambient tune. Donna's vocals will most definitely send you into another dimension.
Makeshift Bomb Shelter (down that road mix) Makeshift Bomb Shelter (down that road mix)
A club stomping remix of Makeshift Bomb Shelter.
Such A Strong Word (Make A Model) Such A Strong Word (Make A Model)
An experimental, almost hip-hop track. A short one, planned for use as an interlude, so it's quite a little treat. Feautures Jake, Gabby, and Ashley on vocals, and Jake on keys and drum programming.

This is PREDESTINATION. We are a 3 piece but open to all willing musicians in the area (an eclectic band if you will).
:
: (keys, guitar, bass, vocals, lyrics, co-arranger)
: (percussion, vocals, lyrics, co-arranger)
: (vocals, lyrics, co-arranger)
:
: vocal collaborator ("Pounding")
As of now we've got a few songs recorded as a group. After our first live show on December 23rd, we decided that Ashley should take over lead vocals. Recording has been at a stand-still lately; but that will change very soon.Band/artist history
We all met in high-school (where we still are). And all have an astounding appreciation of music, writing, theatre, etc. Jacob and Gabrielle played in a former band together and began work "Makeshift Bombshelter" (a song about World War II written by Gabrielle). When it was an amazing success (it and it's remix) the band took it's shape. Ashley was inducted because of her closeness to Jacob and Gabrielle and because of her admirable vocal ability. And Predestination was born!Have you performed in front of an audience?We are working on bringing these intricate songs to life in a live spectrum. Seeking live players (guitar, bass, any additional intruments to enhance the performance). Jake's friend Ray has come onboard as our live bassist.
We've only had one live show in the few months that Predestination has been together. We performed at an open mic night at The Coffee Connection in Mayfair, with a simple four song set list that consisted of "Sweetheart", the live version of "Makeshift Bombshelter", a new song which features Ashley by herself "Between Red And Green", and our cover of the Guster song "Say That To My Face".
Your musical influences
We all come from very different musical backrounds. Gabrielle and Ashley are very familiar with theatre and Jacob is into lots of classical sounding performers. Here's everyone's vague breakdown on influences:
Jacob: Bjork, The Smashing Pumpkins, Sigur Ros, Rufus Wainwright
Gabrielle: Guster, Silverchair, Gruvis Malt, Damien Rice
Ashley: Jason Mraz, The CureWhat equipment do you use?
Equipment is minimal at the moment...heh. The vastly unheard of Baby Gorilla amp is the showcase i suppose. Like previously mentioned, we have yet to perform live.Anything else?
ENJOY!! We are pleased to share with you our love.
