Saturday, 16 August 2008
Switchblade UK formed back in late 2005 as a three piece and wrote, recorded and produced their first album 'Darkfalls' in 2006 under the watchfull eye of Alan Wilson. Staff changes saw the band go from a three piece to a four piece when Kate Baben (Bass) and Daff Parry (Guitar) joined following the departure of Nathan Foxhall( Bass). Due to heavy work commitments Kate was also forced to quit the band after 18 months with Switchblade but was quickly replaced with present bassist Nick 'Niko' Burton. Switchblade pride's itself on writing all it's own original material albeit with many influence's to guide us, and are not afraid to experiment and be different but always keeping the heavy Switchblade sound

Press Release: Switchblade UK has been the main support act for ‘Bon Jovi’ in front of a 23’000 strong crowd which also got them massive exposure in the Bristol evening post, various very positive reviews, plus asked to do several live radio interviews building up to the 'Bon Jovi' show. They have been exposed on the following radio stations, Radio Bristol, Red dragon FM, GPR, University of Wales Radio and certain tracks are available on POD casts from within the MySpace domain and CYQO.com. The band has in excess of 3,000 friends on MySpace and continues to receive good feedback from the community including bands such as Tommy Lee (Motley Crue), Scum of the Earth and Suicidal Tendencies. The band is also pursuing interest from Japan relative to the Video for Electric Chair.
