Like a shot fired from the depths of Hell, VENTURE has exploded onto the music scene with their debut EP, SILVER LINING. Their music has already been in rotation on radio, and now their live performances are creating quite a stir in the music industry. Blake Self, Michael Barnes, Nathan Hunstable, and Vin Abadie have formed a powerful alliance, and are poised to take their music to the next level. Its been a long journey so far, and we have so many hurdles to overcome, says lead singer/guitar player Blake Self. Formed in early 2004, VENTURE has been playing the club circuit in Dallas, Denton, Ft. Worth, Houston, and Arlington. We hope to travel more this year, and bring our show to more friends and fans, says drummer Michael Barnes. After initially recording a 3 song demo titled SHATTERED the band began to write and compose more songs. Six more songs were recorded in 2005, and two new songs were written for the new EP. After saving their pennies earned at shows, the band pooled their resources for an all or nothing recording session at Gridlock Studios in Orlando Florida. Justin Thomas was chosen to record and produce the new music, and his genius is evident on the new disc. We all were impressed with Justins work with bands like Faktion and Dark New Day, so it was really an honor to work with him, says Blake. The session produced five of their best songs, and the EP is now being enjoyed by fans all around the world.
