ABOUT

Midlands based melodic heavy metal band Valous are after a new drummer!
We are a chilled out but committed and professionally minded group of lads in our mid 40s who, up until covid sent things south, had built up a good following and excellent reputation for live performances with promoters, and as such have been fortunate to play Bloodstock and HRH Ibiza, to name just a few.
We are after a drummer that can commit to the band on a long term basis, one who has technical ability but can sit nicely in the pocket and who is first and foremost a solid groove player.
We still have lots of contacts in place for when we decide to hit the road again, and the goal is to get back out bigger and better than before, but with the whole band fully committed for the long term. To this end, whilst being on hiatus we have been writing new material, which is now in its recorded demo stages.
If you want to check us out we have our music streaming on numerous sites such as Apple music, Amazon music, Spotify and Youtube. The most recent EP release the last four things is more the route that we are heading down musically at present.
