Band Line Up 2023
Formed in 2010, Bloodyard are a 4 piece Groove/Death metal band, based
in North-West England. The band consists of Donna Hurd on vocals, Nick
Adamson on guitar, Dave Cowley on bass, and Matty Lee on drums. Over the
last few years Bloodyard have developed a Metal style all of their own, blending
old school Death Metal with modern Thrash. Adding splatterings of Black Metal,
Grindcore, and even a vein of Doom, the band have drawn comparisons with many
extreme metal legends such as Lamb of God, Cannibal Corpse, and Bolt
Thrower.
They have played some of the biggest and most notable venues all across the UK, and in 2015, Bloodyard won the Metal to the Masses competition, earning themselves a slot at that year's Bloodstock Festival! That year they also appeared on a special Scuzz TV feature about the Festival. From there, they went on to appear at many of the other UK top festivals, such as Hammerfest, HRH Metal, Mammothfest, Hordes Festival, and Eradication Festival Manchester. After two well received E.P releases (Set to fall and Darker rage), in 2020 Bloodyard released their debut full length album, Orchard of Corpses. 2022 saw the recording of a monstrous new offering to be release, late Spring 2023!
