Hailing from the British overseas territory of Gibraltar and the UK, Real, formerly known as Milbajac, revive sounds from the 80’s and 90’s, blending them with elements of modern rock and creating an explosive melodic combination of catchy choruses, deep lyrics and big guitars.
The band recorded their debut album “Shade Of Grey" at the Power Station Studios in Florida during the latter part of 2003. Well known for his work with the likes of Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, The Ramones and many other great artists, legendary producer Tony Bongiovi helped capture the energy of their live shows along with the well crafted songs they had written.
The band’s first single, “Radio” received substantial international airplay and many positive reviews. Unfortunately, at a time when many expected the band to drive on to new heights, personal reasons and the departure of a band member slowed the band’s ever growing momentum.
A period of inactivity on the live scene enabled the band to re-focus and concentrate all their efforts on songwriting and recording demos. Joined recently by charismatic, new frontman George Payas, the band have now recorded their first album under the REAL banner with producer Tony Bongiovi at the helm once again.
The Real band members have a wealth of experience as performers, having plied their trade on the same stage as several well known bands in the UK, Europe and as far as the middle east. A new name, a new sound, a new frontman, Real are heading towards the next level.....so grab a ticket and see them there!
Some useless bits of info:
The band met on Myspace, George, who is originally from Gibraltar is UK based, whilst the rest of the band reside in Gibraltar.
Most of the album was co-written via email.
Part of the album was recorded in an old world war 2 bomb shelter in Gibraltar.
Avandu-si radacinile in taramurile Gibraltarului si al Regatului Unit, formatia Real, cunoscuta in trecut sub numele de Milbajac, reinvie sunetul anilor '80 si '90, mixandu-l cu elemente ale rock-ului modern creand astfel o combinatie exploziva de refrene care prind usor, versuri profunde, si chitari puternice. Au inregistrat albumul de debut, Shade Of Grey (Nuanta de gri), in studiourile Power Staion din Florida, la sfarsitul anului 2003. Binecunoscut pentru colaborarea cu formatii gen Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, The Ramones si multe altele, legendarul producator Tony Bongiovi a ajutat la imbinarea energiei oferite de spectacolele live cu profunzimea melodiilor. Primul single al formatiei, "Radio", a fost difuzat foarte des de radiouri din intreaga lume si a primit multe remarci pozitive. Din pacate, in momentul in care toata lumea se astepta ca formatia sa avanseze, problemele personale si plecarea unuia dintre membri a incetinit progresul grupului. Perioada de absenta de pe scena a permis formatiei sa-si incarce bateriile si sa se concentreze asupra noilor cantece si inregistrarii demo-urilor. Dupa ce li s-a alaturat noul lider, carismaticul George Payas, membrii grupului au inregistrat primul album sub noul nume, REAL, avandu-l si de aceasta data pe Tony Bongiovi ca producator. Componentii formatiei Real au o bogata experienta ca artisti, dupa ce au cantat pe aceleasi scene ca alte nume importante, incepand in Marea Britanie si ajungand pana in Orientul Mijlociu. Cu un nou nume, un nou sound, un nou lider, formatia Real avanseaza spre urmatorul nivel... Pune mana pe un bilet si urmareste-i in drumul spre succes! Cateva informatii nefolositoare: Membrii formatiei s-au intalnit pe MySpace; George, care provine din Gibraltar, locuieste in Marea Britanie, in timp ce ceilalti locuiesc in Gibraltar. Majoritatea cantecelor au fost compuse prin intermediul e-mail-ului, iar o parte din inregistrari au fost facute intr-un adapost din Gibraltar, din timpul celui de-al doilea Razboi Mondial.
