Biography:

Violet Fuse is a high energy rock band from London Ontario with influences rooted in classic hard rock. This influence is evident in their music which can be described as hard rock with a modern edge. While the band formed in late 2006 with original singer Tim Vujicic (of the band Tommyrot) and Scott Vincent (guitar) when they met in college, the band became complete in June 2007 adding Kyle Mayer (current vocals/bass) and Thom Edwards (drums). Violet Fuse has been ripping up stages for more than 3 years gaining a faithful local following because of their energetic live shows. In April 2008 Vujicic made a switch to Tommyrot creating an opportunity for Mayer to transition to the role of lead vocals. This lineup created a new dynamic to the band and after a break from the stage to write, Violet Fuse emerged as a power trio in 2009 with new songs and a renewed live show that has them being re-booked at venues around London time and time again. Violet Fuse has more than 44 years of musical experience between them.

The band has been recently recognized in the critical community being nominated for both London Music Awards and Jack Richardson Awards in 2010. On August 7th 2010 the band is poised to release their debut self titled full length album. Standout tracks like Castle Walls and RNFNR merge Mayer’s melodic vocals with Vincent’s ear splitting guitar solos and Edwards' energetic drumming to create a collection of high energy rock at its finest. With so much opportunity on the horizon in the remainder of 2010, Violet Fuse will not be slowing down and will continue to do what they do best…Rock!
