Memory Fest ’16 have been provided with a signed copy of Imitation Sun, one of Captain Horizon’s CDs!
Captain Horizon are an alternative rock band from the West Midlands. Over the course of three EPs and two albums they’ve invented a sound entirely their own, bringing a wide range of styles together to create an instantly accessible identity.
“Captain Horizon has accomplished something unique… they have harnessed lightning in a jar.”
Captain Horizon enjoy a well-deserved reputation as one of the most exciting live bands on the circuit, with high-energy showmanship, soaring melodies and precise vocal harmonies captivating the attention of audiences across the country.
Captain Horizon are:
- Steve “Whitty” Whittington – lead vocals
- Joshua Watson – guitars, backing vocals
- James “Mez” Merrix – drums, percussion
- Alex Thomson – bass, backing vocals
The band was born in the summer of 2008 when Josh and Alex started writing songs that brought together the high energy and intricacy of influences such as Incubus, Radiohead, Tool and Porcupine Tree, and the classic swagger of stadium bands like U2, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd and AC/DC. Mez joined shortly after and set about bringing his unique brand of precise and original drumming to the music. Whitty was the last piece of the puzzle, injecting thunderous vocals, unstoppable self-belief and the ability to charm any crowd before him.
This fantastic item (I’ve listened to it and it is fantastic!) will be available as one of our Raffle Prizes, thanks to Jacqui and Steve Snowball in Macclesfield.
