Starting back in 2002, Willow Drive were once known as Toilet Street. They gained an active and loyal fan base through what can only be described as relentless gigging around Northern Ireland. Over the times, it saw manys a change in style, leaving them to settle into what they love and do best – ‘Balls out rock and fuckin roll’.
Taking their influences from every artist they’ve ever heard or seen perform, mainly the likes of the Deftones, Metallica in places, Thrice and Staind. They take their crunching riffs with clever lead guitar and pounding rhythms; and mix them with a pair of outstanding vocalists to create a powerfully melodic, tight 4 piece
Having gigs in most venues in Belfast, including the Limelight, Empire and all the usual suspect outlets, Willow Drive aren’t put off by crowd or venue. Also with airplay on the nation’s number 1 radio station – Cool FM. Whether they’re playing to 3 people or 300, they’ll rock out. With nothing but a passion for the music they listen to and play, it’s evident in live shows…they just love to play.
However, there’s only so many Belfast gigs to play and so many places to travel to around the province…Willow Drive are ever searching for their chance to break out and play to people who have already shown a great interest for recorded material elsewhere in the mainland UK |
