Биография

Bassal is a small indie-ish rock band with a shit ton of punk energy out of Wilbraham, Massachusetts. They take inspiration from a lot of different genres and change up their sound pretty often so they wind up being a weird psychedelic melting pot of bombastic energy and good times. The band first formed when Jake(Vocals and Guitar) and Andrew(Drums) met in an acoustic guitar class. Jake played drums and sang at the time in a small band and figured he'd start a new project with Andrew playing guitar his other friend Derek playing bass for their school's battle of the bands. This group didn't last long but Jake and Andrew kept playing together leading to a few other projects which never really gained traction. Pretty soon Andrew took up the drums and Jake slowly became more and more interested in the guitar so they began switching instruments in jam sessions more often. This led them to search for a new bass player and the person they both instantly thought of was Simon. They had both seen Simon at their school's last battle of the bands playing with Wilbroham where they both acknowledged his incredible timing and groove. Simon began jamming with them soon after and they figured they would once again play their school's battle of the band. Short on time and in desperate need of a name the band landed on Bassal after Jake accidentally mispronounced a diabetic term and the band's name was born.
