Interview with Compton’s answer to the Beatles, “In Memory Of”

You may be aware of musically talented students that we have within our school, one band being In Memory Of who recently played at the Rock n Roll Circus at the arts depot on the 19th of March.

If anyone has seen In Memory Of at the arts depot or even at All saints, you would agree that they surely were a crowd pleaser! With over 800 plays on their myspace page, they are attracting many teenagers with their music.

Currently writing songs in between their education, they certainly weren’t shy in saying no to an interview with the magazine. We questioned the boys, Adam, Eden and Jonathan who play alongside band members Ben and Dito (out of school friends) on the Rock and Roll Circus experience and general questions about their band.

Adam: Jonathan heard about it ages ago and told the band about it and nearer the time, we got involved!
