Down For Days

Down For Days is the brainchild of drummer Paul 'Sandy' Sandefur who after years of playing in cover bands and writing his originals on the side, had amassed many demo's in his home studio that he knew he needed to find the right people to help finish them and get them out to the public.

For vocals, we have the monster pipes of Jeff Allen Alberti. Jeff has a gritty, yet distinctive and powerful voice who sounds like a mixture of Chris Stapleton and James Hetfield which makes for a wonderful combination. Jeff earned his stripes traveling the United States singing with his church praise team as he performed and competed throughout the U.S. as well as in local cover bands. Jeff has lost most of his vision making him a very unique front man, but make no mistake about it, you won't want to miss this mans performances!

The bassist came way of Sandy jamming together in several side projects in the past with a monster bassist named Jordan Goldman. Those projects included a Grunge tribute, a S.O.A.D. tribute and even a classic rock cover band named Hypersoul which they still jam together in to this day. Jerry was also a part of the two tribute band projects, small world ! ! ! Jordan is a well schooled musician who earned his Bachelors degree in Jazz Performance and a Masters in Classical Music & Education as well as having taught music for a number of years.

And last but not least, our guitarist is Dustin Newbold who is a classically trained guitarist and violinist who holds three music degrees from Belmont University and McKendree University. Dustin is a very technical player highly influenced by the likes of John Petrucci of Dream Theater, Michael Romeo of Symphony X and the great Steve Vai. Dustin possesses a very progressive playing style combined with a neoclassical writing style that makes for a great fit to this current lineup.

And that is how this band came to be. Four musicians who took some simple demos and turned them into some good rock and roll. Hopefully we will be able to entertain you with our music and performances.
