Keeley Davis, formerly of Engine Down and Denali and currently of Sparta, has announced via his blog the formation of a new band, Heks Orkest (which, in case you were wondering, means "witch orchestra" in Dutch). Alongside him in this new band is former Engine Down/Denali bandmate Jonathan Fuller on bass and former Denali bandmate Cam DiNunzio on guitar, as well as drummer Ed Trask of Avail, vocalist Dave Grant (ex-Action Patrol). Davis had this to say about the new group's formation:

"So this is the new project involving old guys. Don't think we won't still sweat and tear a hole in your ear drum. It's on like Donkey Kong."

You can currently download two songs from the band on their website; they will be debuting their lineup live next month. Details:

FRIDAY SEPT 18 | RICHMOND VA | AT BIKE LOT | WITH BRAINWORMS
SAT SEPT 19 | RICHMOND VA | TBA
