   About Semper Fi

Based on a Latin word meaning "to be always faithful", the band embodies this theme to the end. The diverse backgrounds and influences of each member, bonded by a kindred spirit contribute to create a forged and uniform identity that is... Semper Fi...

From auspicious beginnings in the drummer’s garage, to jamming in rehearsal studios, recording demos at the singer’s home studio and doing time on MTV, this band has gone from strength to strength.

With a passion for music that speaks beyond the notes that are played and the genre they are in, a wide palate of influences shape the sound of Semper Fi – exemplified by the ‘genre hopping’ from song to song that would seemingly occur and the difficulty in classifying the band. Despite this subjective illusion, Semper Fi has a distinct sound that echoes through each and every song with an ever-present constant, to remain ‘always faithful’ to the core of what the band personifies and the vocal message that articulates it.

With line-up changes that go hand in hand with finding the right combination of musicians, Semper Fi has finally found the missing links to its matrix. The understanding that the band members have not only with each other but the essence of what Semper Fi epitomises, allows for the sum to be greater than its parts. This is most obvious in the fact that despite the current line-up being cemented in August 2007, the band sounds like it’s been playing together for years. This bond is also what creates the intangible energy that is released when on stage and the overwhelming feeling that engulfs not only the audience but the band members themselves, knowing that for that timeless moment, we are all connected to something far greater than we can ever fathom or fully comprehend.

Hey Guys!

Have you heard the buzz about Global Battle of the Bands (GBOB) - this year as it’s going to be HUGE!! The sponsors we have on board are awesome - Chanel V, FasterLouder. com. au, FujiFilm, Converse and lots of others giving away cool gear!

Australia rates really well in this comp. Last year’s National Winner was Sydney’s great funk rock band Urban Stone who actually came 7th in the World Finals in London!

So yes, it’s all super exciting!! I’ll keep you updated on all the heat dates and locations or go to www. gbob. com as all the details will be on there.
