POWER-ROCK TRIO FEATURES MULTI-AWARD WINNING GUITARIST-SINGER
OLI BROWN
Before forming RAVENEYE, Oli Brown spent ten years touring the world under his own name and in that time he released four albums, establishing himself as one of the most formidable guitarists/front men on the UK scene. Classic Rock Magazine called Brown “one of the best and brightest guitar heroes performing in the world today.” His work as a solo artist prior to RavenEye also earned him supporting gigs alongside such artists as Jeff Beck, Buddy Guy, Johnny Winter and Joe Satriani, but being part of a band was what Browncraved.
“I’ve been looking to find the right people to get together with for so long; it’s something we’ve all had a craving for individually,” says Brown, “I’m finally performing with two killer musicians, who are wicked on stage and are also close friends, it’s amazing how music can make people connect so differently.”
The EP’s first single, and title track, “Breaking Out,” evokes thoughts of early Kyuss and Soundgarden – hard melodic rock with thoughtful lyrics that will stick with you long after the song ends. As soon as the song was recorded, it defined what RavenEye’s musical foundation would be - heavy, hard and fuzzed out rock. The song is about “breaking out” of personal conformities. The lyric, “I am the soldier of my war inside” represents the constant battle between what you feel you should do and what you really want to do. Sometimes it’s so easy to obscure your own visions because of other people’s formalities.
RAVENEYE will be breaking out in the U.S. very soon, tour dates to be announced shortly.
