Biography
Starting back in 2002, Willow Drive were once known as Toilet Street. They gained an active and loyal fan base through what can only be described as relentless gigging around Northern Ireland. Over the times, it saw manys a change in style, leaving them to settle into what they love and do best Balls out rock and fuckin roll.
Taking their influences from every artist theyve ever heard or seen perform, mainly the likes of the Deftones, Metallica in places, Thrice and Staind. They take their crunching riffs with clever lead guitar and pounding rhythms; and mix them with a pair of outstanding vocalists to create a powerfully melodic, tight 4 piece.
Having gigs in most venues in Belfast, including the Limelight, Empire and all the usual suspect outlets, Willow Drive arent put off by crowd or venue. Also with airplay on the nations number 1 radio station Cool FM. Whether theyre playing to 3 people or 300, theyll rock out. With nothing but a passion for the music they listen to and play, its evident in live showsthey just love to play.
However, theres only so many Belfast gigs to play and so many places to travel to around the provinceWillow Drive are ever searching for their chance to break out and play to people who have already shown a great interest for recorded material elsewhere in the mainland UK...

"NIXA possess a quality that sets them apart from other front runners on the alt/rock scene with perfect dynamics and incredible song craft. They bounce between gentle and aggressive in a single beat, tied with soaring harmonies and mesmerising stage presence. This band will find themselves being listened to by a wide audience, no doubts in both the alternative and commercial rock scenes" TOTAL ROCK
"...done very, very well. Deep, powerful voice, BIG music and just the feeling that something very professional is happening -I don't mean in a clinical way, just in that way that, when you find out they're unsigned, it's a bit of a shock!" XFM
"The absolute epiphany of my weekend was London based Nixa. Everytime I see this band, I fall in love a little bit more. Their performance was stunning and it was definitely the climax of the night as things petered off afterwards. Their Biffy Clyro-esque style, gorgeous vocal harm
