Bio
Colt.44 formed in 2007 with the intention of playing music that wasn't based on haircuts, gimmicks or what was popular at the time. Comprised of Adam Jerome (Vocals/Guitar), Gary Hayden (Vocals/Bass) and Alex Smith (Drums) ,they began to write music they enjoyed- heavy, down-tuned riffs with classic rock solos, and above all, real singing. The gigs then started coming thick and fast; the music progressing to what it is today- a blend of modern american rock and grunge! This collection of solid hard rock hits and an electric stage presence has gained them over 230 shows to date all over the uk including supports with Inme, DOGS, [Spunge], Orange Goblin, We are the Ocean, Slaves to Gravity, Exit ten, Panic Cell, Zico chain, Forever Never, Symphony cult and many more; as well as landed them a record contract with Casket Music and an endorsement from Darkside clothing! Expect to see the them tearing up the UK stages in support of their debut album ‘One Horse Town’, as well as on TV and airwaves with their music videos 'sick' and 'Knock it back'.
