Worlds Apart (Australian band)

Worlds Apart is a five-piece melodic hardcore band from the New South Wales Central Coast in Australia.

History

It started when a couple of friends that worked together began jamming together and decided to start a band in the early 2000s. The original Members of the band were Owen Mathieson (drums), Matt Higley (guitar), James McKenzie (vocals) and Adrian Trethewy (bass).

Over the years there has been many member changes with the current members being AJ on vocals, Tristan Stein on bass, Owen Mathieson on drums, Matt Higley on guitar and Jason Parrish on guitar.

All the hardwork playing gigs with national and international bands has paid off for the boys because they have signed with Indie label, Washed Up Records. The band had persisted before that with a "do it yourself" attitude and had spent years rehearsing in Owen Mathieson's mum's spare room before securing a rehearsal space at a nearby suburb.
