Formed in 2006 and gaining a significant reaction upon the release of their early demos within the European Heavy Metal community, Pathfinder has since gone on achieve worldwide acclaim with two studio albums that deliver an unhealthy dose of symphonic power metal that is complemented perfectly with their fantasy based lyrics.

Passions in life: Movies, Music and Wrestling....My childhood was spent growing up in the "Outback" of Australia (I'm a little bit country) and my adulthood resided within the city limits (I'm a little bit rock and roll), so you could say that I am the best (or worst) of both worlds. A 6 foot 7 ex wannabe pro wrestler (whose career was cut short due to a busted back, NOT caused by wrestling) & muso who has a precocious cat & a habit of doing the wrong thing but for the right reasons. The story of my life???? All demos, no albums ;)
