BREAK NEKK SPEED

BIOGRAPHY:

Break Nekk Speed were a four piece rock band from Falkirk with a heavy, grungy, funk sound. They were formed in mid-2002 by brothers David Drummond (vocals) and Andrew Drummond (bass), along with James McLeod (guitar) and Ryan Yule (drums), all of whom had been members of Area 51. After a few months the band started writing their own material and eventually played their first gig at IROZMUSIC "Battle of the Bands" in Bannermanns, Edinburgh. After four rounds of heats, Break Nekk Speed found themselves coming runners-up in the final in late February 2003, held at The Bongo Club, Edinburgh. Meanwhile, a few gigs were played around the Central belt.
Practising twice a week and writing new material, the band decided to record their first demo at Groove Tunnel Studios, Loanhead. This earned the band valuable recording and studio experience.
2004 saw Break Nekk Speed start regular gigging, with plans to play south of the border in 2005, however in summer 2006 they split. The Drummond borthers then formed Triggers Brush, whilst Yule joined Akolayd.
