Since meeting at an open mike night at their elementary school in 2005, Deep Subject, a hard working group of teens held together by a determined , experienced drummer, has made huge progress as a group of talented musicians. Having recently recorded their debut album “Oceans”, their musical goals cover a wide expanse of styles and direction. The songs draw inspiration from everything from 80's classic metal to modern rock, making the album a fusion of these two genres in particular. The four piece band is driven by Derek Hope, a talented young guitarist, and fronted by Sara Michelle Preston on vocals, who lends a feminine edge to their style. The pair, along with bass guitarist Thomas Bamford, and drummer Scott Bamford worked together to assemble a meaningful album written about coping with the trials and tribulations of life. After the tragic passing of one of their schoolmates, Sara Michelle and the band found some relief by putting a pen to paper and creating lyrics that had real meaning to themselves and their peers. The title song off their debut album is a beautifully crafted ballad, that appeals to a wide variety of musical tastes. Some of the band’s other memorable songs, like the melodic “Path of Roses”, make for a heartbreaking performance, and are sure to be pleasing to a wide variety of rock fans worldwide. Their concerts are prominently driven by their heavier rock songs, and they also do cover sets including songs like Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train” and the Skid Row anthem “Youth Gone Wild”. The band is focused on the future of rock music, and it is easy to see from this talented group of musicians that the power of youth is still quite alive and well.
