OSIRIS has been performing in the Charleston area off and on since 1998. With numerous shows under the bands belts, the band's experience and maturity shows with each performance. One thing this band strives to do is set their performances to be more of a concert than just a band standing on stage going through the motions.
The band consist of the following members:
Tommy Forrest/Bass Guitar ~ Tommy has been in some really good bands in the area, most notably The Rejectors, Lethal Injection and Virus. He is versatile and a pleasure to watch.
Mark Kidwell/Lead Guitar ~ Mark has been around for a while. He can play anything from Exodus to Lamb of God while playing more melodic music like Iron Maiden to the "T". Mark played for a lot of good bands in the area as well. He is mostly known for his work with Unit 35 who played all over the southeast.
David Ward/Lead Guitar ~ David has a style all his own. He can whip out some Randy Rhodes and blow your mind, while at the same time he is able to turn around and play Slayer with the punchiness you would expect of a metal guitarist. David played with OSIRIS before and we are happy to have him back in the family.
Tony Monk/Percussions/Vocals ~ Tony was playing in a funk/progressive band the first time we went out to see him perform. He has an unique style of drumming that fits in very well with OSIRIS. He has made the transition to a metal drummer very easily and is just a joy to watch. His style permits him to play a wide spectrum of music while hitting the beats that make the head start to rock. Tony has played in a few really good bands around the area, most notably Double O, Sicklounge and Suspicious Package. We are ecstatic to have him with OSIRIS.
Worth Bowman/Lead Vocals ~ Worth has a very diverse vocal range/style. He can sing anything from Judas Priest to King Diamond to Hatebreed. His style is more in line with Killswitch Engage. Worth has played in a few bands, most notable were Black Plastic, Havens and he is the only remaining co-founding member of OSIRIS.
