    theuctheatre.org · details
    Since forming in 2009, Basement has always been the same five friends -- vocalist Andrew Fisher, guitarists Alex Henery and Ronan Crix, bassist Duncan Stewart, and drummer James Fisher. The British band’s first album in 8 years, WIRED feels like a record that needed to be made. A raw and creative undertaking that could have only been conceived after time away to reflect on life, legacy, expectation and what brought the five musicians together in the first place."
