WREX
When George Donoghue and Mae Seaton met as perfect strangers on a night out, neither of them could have known how much they needed one another.
But WREX, the band born of the pair’s chance connection some years later, has come to be exactly that: not simply a creative outlet but a need, an urge, a calling, a pure expression.
Together, Donoghue and Seaton make electro-charged alternative rock to turbocharge heartbeats, snap necks and fill both dancefloors and moshpits. Shades of punk, nu-metal, pop and trance collide and coalesce but never clash; a wild explosion of riffs and synths that pulls from influences as diverse as While She Sleeps, Faithless and Linkin Park. This is the WREX blueprint: a fierce, all-enveloping wall of sound with little time for music’s outdated boundaries or conventions; creativity, joy and emotion unbound.
“Working with someone that has as much excitement for making music as Mae is invigorating and inspiring for me,” Donoghue says. “Neither of us has any sort of ego when it comes to making music. No idea is ever off the table. A big part of the WREX ethos is never asking permission – that cuts to the core of both our sound and our DIY sentiment. WREX is ultimately about making art for the sheer joy of creating, and we want to convey that excitement on record and in our live show.”
“WREX is about letting go,” Donoghue says. “It’s a release from everything that’s going on in the world around you, a purge of everything you’re thinking and feeling.”
