Crunchy guitar, slamming beats and tasty bass smothered in an aggresive vocal sauce. The major theme is a musical agreement that life, in general, is a major pain in the ass.

Signal 7 Biography


Signal 7 is a hard rock quartet diligently designing music for the working man. Their lyrics arenât confusing, deliberately discernable or designed to bring you to that happy place. They are descriptive frustrations of everyoneâs life. The things in your head that no one hears. Why do they pull it off so well? They are hard working people and pull no punches in letting the world know how they feel and what they think about it. For you the listener itâs a great source of release after another day on the job. Their new CD âService with a Smileâ conveys this message over a hard rock beat with a similar in your face delivery.
The band began with the brothers Smitty and Jason. They would get together and play with a cousin that played drums at Smittyâs house on the weekends in the late 90âs. The brothers switched instruments and began looking for a singer. After a couple of years of not being able to find a singer, the drummer left the band. Smitty and Jason continued writing and practicing with a drum machine. In 2001 a drummer, Ross, was found through a friend that had tried out as a singer. Steve was often at practices or just hanging out and decided to join in as the singer. The band came together with a personal style and began playing shows in the area in 2003. Just as it seemed the band was headed for greatness, Ross was called to duty in Afghanistan. 18 months later he returned and the band geared up for another run. Soon after their return to the scene they were signed by a record label and headed to the studio in March of 2006. With the CD completed and an arsenal of new songs, Signal 7 is headed back to the road for a tour soon after the CDâs release.
The bands fashion style is also that of the working man. Jeans and a T-shirt and not a lot of flash, though they sometimes get more conservative if the situation calls for it. The band members have varying hobbies. Jason likes computers, Ross likes to shoot things and Steve and Smitty enjoy reading a good novel. They are all interested in creating a better music scene in their hometown area of Roanoke, VA. As Steve has said, âI think music is one of the most important things in life. A way to let out things inside, or to express things that would in any other way be difficult to express. I believe music is emotion out loud.â The band members all have a good sense of humor and like to joke around. They are friends to everyone and have a good time at whatever they do. Tool, Clutch and Helmet have been influences of every band member. Favorite bands also include System of a Down, Misfits, Ministry, White Zombie, Johnny Cash and Outkast.
With their many years as part of working society and even more years perfecting their individual style, Signal 7 is sure to be loved by anyone who has ever had controversy in their day to day lives. Music that you can relate to. Music that says what you want to say. Music that reaches your innermost thoughts and brings out that adrenalin youâve been saving up!
