Formed in mid '06 by Mark Grant and Steve Platt, Adastra (UK) is a rising force on the Scottish music scene. A few line up changes saw the addition of bassist Andy Armour in late '06 and late '08 brought in front man Barry Chiz.
Adastra (UK) is a unique fixture on the Scottish music scene. Their trusted brand of melodic shred metal and hard rock, coupled with passionate and energetic live shows are what makes them stand out from the scene.
The band draws heavily on influences from European metal, classic rock and traditional heavy metal. They've have been told by BBC Radio DJ's that they're "Too rock for BBC Rock Radio" and have been referred to by Top Rock Radio as "Proper metal in a really classic style".
The band now with a revitalised energy will enter the studio in December for a full length album; and with world-wide radio airplay, interest from record labels, distribution, and a continually growing fan base - not to mention catching the eye of multi-platinum record producer Beau Hill; they truly are a force to be reckoned with.
