Started playing bass guitar when i was about 17 and in the 2 / 3 years
that followed i switched between bass and 6 string guitar a good few times,
after a while i settled on bass and in 1995 i helped form the first band
i was in "AREA 39"
The first "AREA 39" only lasted a year or so then we went our separate ways
but i decided there and then that if i was to do any music in the future i was
going to do it under the banner "AREA 39"
Over the next few years i had tons of auditions for local bands but non of them
wrote the type of music i wanted to play so i kept looking.
In 2003 i came full circle and the real "AREA 39" was born.
AREA 39 are a 5/6 piece concept/prog rock band based in Leeds.
Consisting of 2 guitars, drums, bass, keys and vocals the band are full of energy with powerful melodies, strong rhythms and music full of emotions and feelings.
AREA 39 offers a very original sound but with a touch of something most concept/prog rock music lovers can recognise.
AREA 39 released the debut album Stand Alone Together which gained radio airplay and reviews worldwide this was then followed by a few small gigs in the north of the UK, since then the band have taken time to create new tracks and perfect a live sound which the band now feels ready to bring to the stage.
AREA 39 are also interested in writing music for tv & film so if you are looking for a composer for a project you have running please feel free to give us a shout.
Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes £leTriKa style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David

Hi Ray! How are you? And how is the littleun? Sorry it took me so long to reply, was going to update the clips with better ones but things have been a bit hectic and they have been proving difficult to upload. You are more than welcome to use any of the clips that are there though. Was just listening to the Lemon Jelly's 'Space Walk' which reminded me of Area 39. Hope all is going well, T.
Hello, was just flicking through some old work and found some stills from the little vid I did to your music. Jus thought I'd post a msg to see how everything is going, I finish my course soon! Can't wait!
