Purple Spiral Project or P.S.P was formed during the summer of 2008 when brothers Matt and John of renowned 'Kinky Wizzards' (drums and bass) teamed up with Jon Evans (guitar) formally the back bone of experimental rock band 'Liquid Distortion' to form a solid and innovative rhythm section of the new band.
Having auditioned several vocalists over the proceeding months it wasn't until October 2009 that Neal Osborne completed the current incarnation of the band they are now gigging throughout UK and in their home town Cardiff.
Matt Griffiths: An accomplished bass guitar player, a multi-faceted addition of talent to the band with his outstanding bass playing ability, musical knowledge and understanding of the guitar. His ability to play groove orientated material or remain in the pocket adds depth and dynamics to the bands material.
John Evans: Having played guitar for over 10 years, has solidified his talents through a comprehensive knowledge of chord structure, theory and writing. John has graced the stage with many bands recently in both progressive and experimental rock genres.
Jon Griffiths: Having played the drums since the age of 9, rounds out the band by providing a rock-solid foundation for the band to build upon. Diverse in his musical tastes and his ability to play a multitude of instruments, Jon has added power, dynamics and creativity to the rhythm section.
Neal Osborne (Ozz): Upon making the decision that he could make a significant impact on the world of music with his voice, Neal joined this exciting band and brings originality with his own style of composing and unique rustic style of singing.
The band perform and create progressive rock structures their music has grown from the influences of Rush, Tool, Primus and anything that creates a groove with a flavour.
The Purple Spiral Project are now gigging throughout the UK never failing to make an impression, playing venues like The Fleece, Bristol. Why not check out one of their shows....they're really quite different.
