Unto Us biography
UNTO US are a rock band based in the South West of England and South Wales. The band writes and performs its own material, which falls - more-or-less - into the realm of progressive rock, though really doesn't draw particularly from any of the prog 'giants'. In fact, though the sound is certainly prog, it draws on the metal, jazz, folk and classical influences of the members of the band. This is music for its own sake: music with no predetermined direction or agenda. Music that is made for the sheer joy of making music.

Formed in mid 2010 by vocalist Huw Lloyd-Jones (a founding member of neo-prog band Also Eden) and bassist Leopold Blue-Sky (ex of Romo legends Viva), Unto Us have not hurried their development. The steps to becoming a fully-fledged band have been tentative and, at times, painfully slow but the plan was always to ensure that Unto Us was fun and never a chore or imposition to the members, in an effort to avoid the stresses that ruin bands for so many musicians.

With Huw and Leo joined by Dave Roelofs (ex Also Eden) on drums, Alex White on keyboards and Tom Ennis on guitar, the album has been written and recorded over the past two years, before finally being released in September 2014. The band have even squeezed in a couple of live shows to keep their name 'out there', most noticeably playing Summer's End in 2013 ("Unto Us: Summer's End 2013 belongs to you" - Prog Magazine).

Due to work and personal commitments, Dave sadly left the band in August 2014. The band were determined to find a drummer as skilled as Dave and, in late August, were delighted to welcome the prodigious talent of Rohan Jordan-Shah to the drum stool.

With the album out and Rohan rehearsed, the band are looking forward to a busy 2015.
