Torn Asunder is bringing rock back to the masses. Many have tried, few have succeeded.
But where Torn Asunder differs is the use of pounding guitars and catchy drumbeats
combined with a soulful female vocal. The unique hybrid of styles that Torn Asunder
brings gives them the edge against other bands, in bringing a sound which is influenced
by both classic and comtemporary rock, but still retaining a fresh and current edge.
Formed of singer Loran, guitarists Marcus and Joe, bassist Glenn and drummer Spence,
Torn Asunder is fueled by a mix of musical backgrounds and a variety of styles, as well
as a passionate belief by all the members that this band can truly give something to the
music world. Torn Asunder were formed in late 2006, and despite a couple of line up
changes, have worked hard to produce performance quality of professional standards
and have never left an audience disappointed.
Achievments include being shortlisted for support slots with Velvet Revolver and the
Foo Fighters and being played on american radio as well as Planet Rock, Total Rock and
BBC Essex radio in the Uk. The band also gave an extensive interview on BBC Essex
for their christmas charity campaign. They have also been featured in local press, been
reviewed in Kerrang Magazine, and have been featured in recent issues of Classic Rock
and Rock Sound magazines.
Torn Asunder also have the honour of being the last band ever to headline at the
legendary Marquee club in london. Further information can be found at
