This is the brand new project put together by Steve Grimmett simply titled 'The Steve Grimmett Band'.
Steve Grimmett has a history that is nothing short of incredible, having what is widely regarded as one of the most powerful and original voices in rock & metal. As vocalist with the legendary Grim Reaper Steve accomplished major success during the 80’s with three highly acclaimed studio albums, along with single releases, MTV airplay, & extensive touring in the States. Grim Reaper videos can often still be seen on some of the major music channels. After Grim Reaper Steve spent a brief period with Onslaught and again enjoyed commercial success, including a single that charted in the UK. More recently Steve's success came in the form of Lionsheart, a powerful melodic metal band whose debut album reached number one in the mainstream Japanese chart.
In early 2006 Steve assembled a touring band with the intention of playing a full Grim Reaper set at a series of European metal festivals & venues. The band members that Steve recruited were guitarist Ian Nash who had previously worked with Steve in Lionsheart & bassist Rich Walker who had played with Ian in Seven Deadly Sins. Drummer Pete Newdeck, who has played with Paul Dianno’s Killers, completed the band line-up.
Steve & the boys’ live performances were incredibly well received that year & they had an awesome time rocking out across Europe together, so much so, that they began to consider how this project could progress & grow. It was during this period that the idea of forming a brand new band was conceived, a band that would combine all of the best elements of Grim Reaper & Lionsheart with a modern metal edge, utilising Ian’s melodic yet shredding guitar, Pete & Rich’s heart pounding rhythm section & of course Steve’s awesome vocal power. On their return to the UK the boys began writing & recording demos for a brand new album & The Steve Grimmett Band was born.
The songs for the new album were completed in early 2007. Pink Cream 69’s bassist & melodicrock.com’s ‘Producer of the year 2005’ Dennis Ward was secured to handle mixing & mastering duties. Pete Newdeck would take care of production & in February 2007 Steve & Pete travelled to Germany to lay down the vocals. The album, now entitled ‘Personal Crisis’ also features appearances by Eric Ragno (Jeff Scott Soto) ..s & Carsten Lizard Schulz (Evidence One) singing backing vocals.
This is where it has all come together & will remain, this is The Steve Grimmett Band.
SEE YOU IN HELL !!!
