   About The Awakening
Create your own banner at MyBannerMaker.com!
Formed in October 2007, The Awakening consisted of David Thompson (guitar) and Chris Anderson (drums). What began as a series of impromptu jam sessions began developing into ideas for songs, and on December 1st, two months later, The Awakening entered The Wade Studio to begin tracking a 3-song demo EP. With Andrew Wade's help, these songs matured into something far more than the original rough ideas presented by Chris and David. Combining elements of rock, metal, ambient, and jazz/fusion, these three tracks are just the tip of the iceberg for this young act. In January, Andrew officially joined The Awakening, and the group is hard at work writing lyrics and vocal melodies for a (hopefully) April or June demo release.

Note- The tracks you hear are VERY rough samples (not a final mix, and there aren't any vocals recorded yet)

please stay tuned, as we'll be updating our samples and photos very soon! best wishes

Hello to all those out there!

I am writing in a desperate need to be heard!

You have listened to the music…. Read the blogs….. Now read this one, The Longest road home….. do you want to support someone who cares or are you going to continue to pay lip service?

I just want people to support those who care!

Do you actually care!!!!

The ultra pleasant Spring weather has been facilitating my maximum enjoyment of your tunes. I think I'm going to go skip through a meadow and make out with a foxy lady, then perhaps weep about it later at night... using your music as the soundtrack for both occasions.
