Biography

The Stray Pursuit is a Swansea-based Alternative Rock band. Taking their musical influence from bands such as Stereophonics, Kasabian, and The Enemy. Their eclectic individual music taste makes each song distinctively their own. The four-piece consists of the lead singer, Aaron Morgan; lead guitarist, Dylan Evans; bassist, Fred Wilkinson; drummer, Ben Lewis, and they had their first gig in November 2018. They went on to sell out the famous Swansea music venue Sin City in March 2019 with their debut single release show of “Out of This World”. Since then, they have featured on This Feelings ‘Big in 2020’ and have played gigs as far as The Dublin Castle, Camden. The origin of the band is due to Aaron & Fred both getting on the wrong bus from college and ending up an hour away from home. After chatting, the pair realised they were in rival bands. Fred invited Aaron over for a jam, after that then Aaron brought Dylan and Nicky. Nicky sadly lost his life in December 2022. As a result of the pandemic, and the Fred finishing university, the boys took a hiatus until June 2022. Since then, TSP have been in the practice room working relentlessly to perfect new and old songs and their tight and enthralling live performances. The boys have been in the studio recording their first EP at Longwave Studios with Romesh Dodangoda in Cardiff. They plan to release their debut EP by December 2023. They are also in the process of booking a tour, so stay tuned for the coming months!
