Shot to Velvet

February 1, 2007

In 2007, I started an alternative metal band called Shot to Velvet (originally named Authorised Defiance). Having enjoyed modest success, we wrapped up in late 2009 to focus on our professional careers and growing families.

I look back on my time playing with Shot to Velvet fondly and still enjoy the music we created. It taught me how to manage creative endeavours, balance stakeholder requirements and perform under pressure.

Our recorded works are available on the Shot to Velvet Bandcamp site
