As their name suggests Neverest are absolutely relentless in the pursuit of their musical goals.We all have our own Mount Everest, says frontman, Spyros Spee’ Chalkiotis,and were never going to rest until we accomplish the things we want to as a band.For a unit that only solidified their lineup a few months ago they’re already well on their way and are now preparing for the October 2010 release of their first single, About Us, which was co-produced in Toronto by internationally acclaimed producer/songwriter, Anthony M. Jones (Ashanti, Mary J. Blige, R. Kelly). But while it may seem Neverest have covered a fair amount of ground in a short time, the development of their unique blend of hard rock and harmony heavy pop actually dates back a few years.
When Spee first began putting together the band that would ultimately become Neverest he intended it to be a blindingly heavy rock outfit. Crazy progressive rock with heavy riffs and melodic vocals over it,he says, a vehicle to challenge the limits of the chops he was developing as a drummer studying jazz percussion at York University. And though the original band drifted apart, Spees efforts to keep the project alive led to a lasting musical partnership with Mike Klose (guitar/keys) that ultimately would form the core of Neverest.
