In late September of 2010, Eric Berryhill and Alex Jolliff began piecing together Blind Mary, a band that would soon become one of Little Rock, AR premiere local acts. Eric's vocals put him in a league of his own. He captures the essence of today's modern rockers, whilst managing to deliver a sound that is fresh and new.
Alex brings an extensive knowledge of music theory to the table and it shows in his guitar playing. From unconventional scales to hard shredding solos, he brings new life into the world of modern rock. Eric and Alex spent weeks writing songs and perfecting riffs, all the while looking for a drummer.
It didn't take too long to find Kevin Lassen. He quickly filled a major void in the band with his natural talent for music and great ability for songwriting. His drumming is phenomenal but it's his ability to sing harmony while playing that makes him stand out the most.
After a few more weeks of writing and polishing, Blind Mary took the stage as a three piece band for the first time. The band played at Vino's in downtown Little Rock, AR and was a huge hit. There was an incredible crowd response and it wasn't long before the band took the stage again at the same venue. As they continued to book shows and write original material, they realized that they had an immediate need for a bassist. The search took a little longer than they had hoped but by the time their third show rolled around, Andrew Pearson had been added to the mix. He quickly picked up on the original songs that the band had written and easily added his own flair to the music. After just three days of practicing, Andrew took the stage with the band at Plan B in Conway, AR. Blind Mary was now complete.
In mid-November, Blind Mary went into Wolfman Studios and recorded "Beating You" and "Reckless Disaster". The songs are posted on their website. The band continues to write new material and put their own spin on everyone's favorite covers.
