POURING RAIN
Here is some Info on our Band & the Members
POURING RAIN is a 4-piece original rock band formed in 1998 by brothers Cary & Bob Moore after a good stint at playing covers in an AC\DC rock band called ROLLING THUNDER, which was fronted by another brother Derek Moore.Starting off as a 3-piece and then moving on to the 2-guitar sound the band has a pop,rock,punk sound which varies from song to song.But with a band filled with 80s rock fans we don't go out of the circle to much.
Soon you will see a 12 song CD out called PISSIN DOWN which has some early roar stuff & some later milder stuff but it all falls under the pouring rain category.A lot of it is just flat out as Bob only knows one speed on drums, but some songs we managed to slow him down a bit which added some contrast between the songs so you don't get bored with one style.
If you like the crunch of 2 guitars then Clive Matamua & Glen Parslow will show you how its done.Labelling Pouring Rain a guitar band is an understatment as there understanding of 2 guitars means there catchy riffs & basic rhythems are one, and tend to resurface later on (probably 4 in the morning when your trying to sleep)
