Volac
Tired of not finding very little music that I actually liked, I decided to get back to writing heavy music that was more than just noise. I have always been a big fan of guitar driven rock and metal, so I set out to make music that was technical, yet interesting to the non-musician listener. This is my attempt so far.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Formed in July of 2005 after leaving my last band for heavier pastures, Volac has had a slow start without other members to bounce ideas off of. Hopefuly there will actually be a band soon and a real history can begin.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Currently, the band is only one person, so there is no live playing. I have played live with my three previous bands, including an opening spot for Fates Warning. There aren't many things better than the rush of being on stage in front of a good crowd.
