Groovy rock/metal with catchy songs, this is the best way to describe theNAME. At heart theNAME is metal, but in the newer, more dynamic songs there is a clear pop influence. An own sound combined with musical elements from several different styles ensures a unique, total sound.
THE HISTORY
Based in Haarlem, theNAME was started by guitarist/songwriter Silas. The basic idea was to start a band with a modern, 'jumpy' metal sound with accessible female vocals.
By getting Hadassa on vocals, the pop-influences got an extra boost. She also makes the sound more dynamic and sensual with her clear but yet powerful voice. This way theNAME creates a different style than the standard in the 'gothic' metal scene.
THE REFERENCES
theNAME released 4 cd's resulting in a lot of gigs and its tightly produced liveshow is a success everywhere it plays.
Recently theNAME performed on Summer Darkness and in venues such as Paradiso, Het Patronaat, Tivoli, P60 and Melkweg. Also theNAME has been playing as support act for Epica, Autumn, Xandria and Krypteria. theNAME won the Battle of the Bands and the 'Impress the Judges' round at the Bodog Battle.
theNAME is your guarantee for an excellently produced, energetic, dynamic live performance.
