Formerly Unknown have been playing together for three years. Although we all live in Belgium, we are a band with members from England, Ireland and France. Last year our singer was Ravi Mehta (Indian/Iranian) but is now in university. The line-up this year (2006) consists of:
Cathal O'Luanaigh - Vocals / Guitar
Theo Cram - Lead Guitar
Jack Neale - Vocals / Bass
Seb Feve - Drums
We also play with a saxophonist - Gary Wall
In 2004 we released 'Living in a Twisted Dream' - a 10track album which was very guitar and solo based.
In MAY 2006, we released 'Lights Out', an album which is very popular and much more song/melody based.

We play every year at the Battle of the Bands in Brussels European Schools of Ixelles and Woluwe. We also regularly play Charity Shows and other small Gigs around Brussels.
In 2006 we won the Battle of the Bands in an amazing show where Lauri Supponen played the Bagpipes for us and the crowd stage invaded.
We will also never forget our Bac Day performance in the school where all present sang along to 'Higher' while many where crying :) THANK YOU!!!
We have loads of influences from Coldplay and Oasis to Rage Against The Machine or Metallica to great classics like Dylan, Clapton or Zeppelin...we also like jazz and hip hop so its hard to say who we are influenced by...
Marshall amps, Ibanez + Fender guitars and Tama kit.
