Closing the curtain on Everest Never Falls
On the 27th of February the five young boys, whose age’s range from 16 – 17 played their last headline show with Your Last Breath. The kicked off the show with a couple of crowd pleasers such as ‘Lemonade’ and a few of their new creations to make the crowed go crazy. Finishing off their half hour set with Enter Shikari’s ‘Sorry your not a winner’ and their very own great creation: ‘Step Back ‘. By the end of the night, the audience were shouting out requests; not letting the band leave the stage.
Front man Jack Warren and lead guitarist George Puckett (who also plays for Your Last breath) say, “I believe that this wasn’t in fact our last show. That because of our great talent and the amount of energy we bring that we will soon be back hitting the stage with new songs and possibly new members.”
Back when they were in year 9, George Puckett (lead Guitarist) Stumbled upon Jack, Ben and Ed while playing a game of Bulldog, That very same day George decided he needed new friends after getting into a bit of trouble with his current friends. After that game he decided he would hang out with them more often. During that time George had been learning guitar and wanted to start up a band. He didn’t realise how his decision to move friendship groups would soon change his life for the better.
After hearing ‘Enter Shikari – Sorry your not a winner’ they realised they wanted to create a sound similar to them. After recruiting Tom, as their bassist, they soon got down to writing songs, playing small gigs and starting up what would soon be a great band!
Having their first gig in Kingswood the band previously called ‘Nuclear Invasion’ didn’t get a fantastic reception, but persevering they then played at Oldland Music Festival. This gig showed how much energy they can create in a crowed. This is when Nuclear Invasion became known.
After being together for a year, they decided a change in sound was in order and in doing so they changed their name to ‘Everest Never Falls’.
Even though the show was an E.P. launch for ‘Your Last Breath’ it was in fact Everest Never Falls who pulled the emotion out of us, as we watched them tear up the stage for the last time. It was an honour to be a part of this crowed.
