SIXandTWENTY Q&A

Your name:
Scott Wilson (7 string guitar).

Where are you from?
Anderson, South Carolina, USA.

Name of band:
SIXandTWENTY.

Who else is in your band?
Tyler Winstead (vox), Dean Rose (bass, vox), Brad Parris (guitar) and Harold Smith (drums, percussion).

How would you describe yourselves?
A more accessible form of progressive metal, groove-laden with lots of riffs, time signature changes, and we also like to tell stories with our lyrics.

Who are your main influences musically?
Tool, Mastodon, Gojira, Alice In Chains, Clutch, Prong.

What do you hope to achieve in music?
We write what we like to listen to - and we feel successful and fulfilled when we get to showcase our music to others!

What has been the highlight of your career so far, and why?
Opening for Halestorm (a week before they won their Grammy) to a sold-out crowd in Greenville, SC! Also, we did a self-financed mini-tour of the midwest last year.

And what’s the moment you want to forget?
Nothing. What doesn't kill you (of embarassment) makes you stronger.

If you had to choose just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why?
Bring Forth Purity, off our second CD Calculations From The Black Night Sky. It has everything we like to do - soaring vocals, abrasive vocal stylings, harmony, riffs and rhythm changes, amazing drumming - listen for yourself!

Where can we listen to it?

Where can we find out more about your music?

Anything else you’d like to say about your band that I forgot to ask?
We love to play LIVE! Come out and catch a show - we promise you WON'T be disapointed!
