Apeira

The word Apeiron relates to Infinity therefore Apeira to us represents The Land of Infinity...The afterlife...The band name was changed form Aeon Omega. We first started as a two man band; me on keyboards and Bam on guitars, and usually spent most of our time improvising and covering our favorite symphonic songs which was totally fun but we weren't so serious about it! As time passed, we slightly improved our skills and played more accurately and made some proper covers of Nightwish. Bac...

The word Apeiron relates to Infinity therefore Apeira to us represents The Land of Infinity...The afterlife...The band name was changed form Aeon Omega. We first started as a two man band; me on keyboards and Bam on guitars, and usually spent most of our time improvising and covering our favorite symphonic songs which was totally fun but we weren't so serious about it! As time passed, we slightly improved our skills and played more accurately and made some proper covers of Nightwish. Back in school we were both in the school band which is a point of experience. Early 2009, we took part in Al Ain mall's music competition, played the Nightwish songs we covered and won the competition. Back in 2008 I took part in that competition alone and won first place in solo instruments. It was a great experience and from that time, we knew that we can improve hell alot and we started getting more serious about making a whole band and we decided to play something more like heavy metal and I also decided to play bass for the band. The week after the competition, we directly called Sherry to play drums with us as he is a really good drummer and he was interested. Apeira was born June 2009 after we had our first official gig in Al Ain and ever since we have composed and written some of our own material and are currently working on our debut album 'Gates To Apeiron' which is expected to be complete by summer 2012. -Al Band Members:BaM Farra - Lead Guitarist/ Lead VocalistBaM was born and raised in Al Ain, always was into rock n roll ever since he was a kid..hes been playing the guitar since age 15 and always has fresh ideas. BaM plays all types of metal and is learning some blues lead guitars and he hopes to learn to play the violin.D.O.B - 29/December/1990Hails From - Damascus - SyriaAl Atef - Bassist/ Keyboardist/ Backup VocalistAl also grew up in Al Ain, however he was more into RnB and Hip Hop unlike his band member and best friend BaM, and eventually got brainwashed by him into metal. He wanted to learn the guitar but an anonymous tip told him to learn the keyboard first since it was easier and then move on to the guitar but Al decided to stay with the Keyboards and has been playing different types of music like classical, Rock, Gothic and Symphonic Metal to name a few since age 10, he also plays the guitar but not perfectly yet. Once they decided to form the band Al decided he would be playing bass for the band.D.O.B 14/February/1990Hails From - Tehran - IranJoel John - Rhythm Guitarist/ Backup VocalistFunny story about Joel, he started guitar way before any of us did and went to school with Al and BaM...spent the last two years looking for people who so much as just LISTENED to metal when he found them a new era started in school...The musicians and metalheads took over...but thats a different story...Joel plays the guitars since age 14 and occasional bass when Al has to play Keyboards. Thanks to him the band chemistry went way higher than expected!D.O.B 11/June/1990Hails From - Kerala - IndiaSherry Ahmed - DrummerSherry, the youngest member of the band was born n raised in Al Ain as well...his ambition was to learn guitar and started off a bit at school, but one day a set of drums were delivered to the school and Sherry got interested when he heard his teacher playing a drum solo...and he has been practicing drums ever since age 15. D.O.B 17/October/1991Hails From - Lahore - Pakistan
