Artist description Our music is hard to classify, only because it doesn't sound like anyone we know. It's very active, sometimes intense. It's not light by any means. It's flashy... Who do you think we make you think of?Danny and I played together during our high school days over 20 years ago. He later played with several bands as I semi-retired to marriage. He hooked up with Kasey. Guess my wife got tired of me, 'cause she bought me a 5-string Jackson and put me in the band....That was us in a nutshell! Now the story is continuing. We've been through a couple of guitarists, and now a new drummer. We have tons of scraps, but not much completed since last year. We are now working on completing 1 song and another on it's way. Hopefully we can post within the next month. We're learning to use some new equipment, from a Digital Mixer to Digital Roland Studio monitors and it's sounding good. The style is more modern, but not boring. As the bass player, I love the new found freedom for experimentation. I'm also working with friends in another studio. Hopefully we can post some of that work somewhere as well! C'ya!

Music Style Hard and Heavy Rock

Musical Influences Ozzy Osbourne, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, Judas Priest, Rush..Alot of the 80's and 90's stuff!

Similar Artists Hmmm, it's tough to compare us to others....I don't know...

Artist History Hung Jury has been together for about 3 years. We've been through many drummers, but the rest of us have been here for the longterm. We perform local to the Northern Virginia area to date. Like most, we perform mostly covers. Recently, with our studio built in my (Tom) basement, we decided it was time...so here it is! Our current drummer has been with us for well over 1 year now. I think this one is going to stick! ...Well, 1 1/2 years later...been thru several drummers and guitarists. The original drummer, Donnie, has returned. We're working on a few things now... We have one new song on the site now, 'No One Else', which was actually a rough recording we intend on redoing someday. It was recorded with our last drummer, Peter Hawkins, and has changed slightly since then. In it's form here, it does have a good sound, so check it out, and let us know what you think!
