Band History:
Calling for Heroes is the brainchild of Nigel - formerly of 8 Lives Down - who,
following their demise set about creating a new project of talented, like-minded
musicians. The drummer Neil; Nigel met previously through auditions for 8LD.
The vocalist Wes impressed the guys so much he was chosen straight away. After
trying out several different people for the role - the bass player, Simon, was
found in October 2007.
The guys then began rigorously rehearsing original material from a huge collection
of songs written over the past few years, building a set so they could make their
debut onto the scene in the early months of 2008. Their Debut EP was recorded with
producer Guy Elderfield (the Libertines, The Donnas, Amusement Parks on Fire) at
Random Recording Studios Nottm in 2008. They have gone on to play some impressive
shows with fantastic reception from the crowds on their first tour which included
Mansfield?s Party in The Park to over 7000 revellers.
