| Ormost Ordinary is a group of close friends and professional outfit formed 18 months ago in May 2003. The guys had all found their roots playing in previous bands and soon came together in a bedroom practise all sharing the same love for music and performing. It soon became clear even from that first practise that this wasn’t going to be just another garage band! Each member of the band has different influences as well as approaches to music and song writing coming from metal to funk and from R&B to Jazz, which gives the group a unique edge. The sound that is blended together has been described as rhythmically complex, upbeat, melodic riff orientated, “super harmonised” power-pop-punk-rock. The guys started off on stage at their schools taking whatever gig experience they could get their hands on. It wasn’t long before the boys were storming onto the local music scene performing, headlining and even selling out gigs in Hertfordshire venues such as “Club 85”, “the pioneer”, ”the phoenix” and “ “the George”. They were soon joined onto promoting companies in and around that area such as Live Circuit, Music Zombie and Trash Can Promotions. This year the Band played at the well known “Rhythms Of The World” music festival in Hitchin Hertfordshire, which was a huge thing for the band because (the year before when they formed they vowed to be on the bill for it and it has been something the whole band has aspired to play there), also as it is one of the biggest free multiple day festival in the UK. They also played at Heartbeat fm’s all day-er in Hertford. Coming from almost nothing to one of the more established groups in Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire. Ormost Ordinary remain a lively, inventive punk band which will continue to grow and grow. So for Neil, Nick, Sam, Mitch and Tom the road continues… |
