SWITCHBLADE KISS
SBX (Switchblade kiss) are a Guitar driven rock band from south wales.With a raunchy style they have had crowds jumping and crying for more since 2000 when they first energed on the scene under various names.The inroduction of Beast as lead singer in 2004 was a pivotal moment and in 2005 they adopted the current name.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Formed in 2000 as Little Unknown playing covers and a couple of home made songs,over the years following they found their own voice and in 2004 the appointment of BEAST as lead singer created a huge wave of interest and new ideas.In 2005 Little unknown became SWITCHBLADE KISS.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We are forever playing live, in fact thats why we formed, who wants to be a bedroom band, or forever locked in studios and only hooking up to sell a new album? Fuck that, we are in this for the people who come to see us. Fans are everything, they teach us what sounds good and what sucks. As for special moments, please forgive how cheesy this sounds, but every night on stage is special to us, its an honour people take time out to come and share our art and passion.
