RYAN :: Guitar, Soundscapes JAMES :: Keys, Soundscapes REN :: Drums, Percussion LUKE :: Bass www.myspace.com/thedeadlighteffect www.facebook.com/thedeadlighteffectmusic The Deadlight Effect was formed in late 2006 when guitarist/keyboardist Ryan Hart relocated to Las Vegas, NV & came in contact with a group of three other musicians (Danny Barnett, Andy Swartz, & Ivan Mendoza) who had been playing together under a different name. The band began practicing & writing on a full-time basis and recorded thier first 3-song demo in Febuary 2007. More song-writing & rehearsal followed and the band continued to evolve it's sound. Listeners began to take notice and the band started playing out around thier hometown, developing a loyal fan-base around the world. In October 2007, the band made a 2-week trek to California to record thier debut full-length album,"Omniscience". The album consisted of 10 tracks, spanning over 55 minutes long. Tracks were posted for streaming online & an immediate surge of praise came from a national audience, including several record labels, promoters, & media outlets. The album would eventually release January 2008 to an ever-growing fan-base. More shows followed, including several large, sold-out shows with well-known national acts. In Spring 2008, the band hit the road on a 2-month U.S tour, which spanned through out the west coast & surroundings and as far east as Eastern Texas. Following the tour, musical direction, interests, outside commitments & personalities within the band started to drift apart and there would eventually be a split among band members. Ryan would continue on with other musicians in attempts to create a stronger core. Over the course of the following year, new material would be written. In 2010, following a relocation to Boise, ID., the band would resurface with a new line-up. Founding guitarist/keyboardist Ryan Hart was assigned to handle all guitar parts. New band members James Catchapole (Keys), Ren Shaw (Drums), & Luke "The Duke" Roberts (Bass) were brought into the fold. With the revitalised line-up, the band set forth on working on new songs & continues to evolve it's ever-changing sound. Currently the band is working on their follow-up album and is set to record in May 2011 in San Francisco, CA. The new album is currently scheduled to release Summer 2011. Shows & tour dates will immediatly follow. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
