Ex-The HAARP Machine Vocalist Joins Intervals

by | Dec 30, 2013

Former The HAARP Machine (as well as Raunchy) vocalist Mike Semesky has joined Intervals.

Semesky initially came into the band as their bass player, but after a few weeks of touring they put him up to the mic.

The band said,

“Intervals has always been about open minded, forward thinking, progressive music with no boundaries. It’s also been about staying true to the art we feel compelled to make, and we couldn’t be happier with the dynamic Mike brings to the music. For those who remember, the band put out a feeler for a vocalist with the release of ‘The Space Between’, but in lieu of finding the right candidate, we decided to move forward with our initial intent: Make music. Mike joined the band as our bass player, but after only a few weeks of touring, it was apparent that this was the chemistry we were after all along.”

If you’re wondering if they’re still an instrumental band, they are…kind of? “The human voice is an instrument and from our perspective.”

Here’s their new song “Ephemeral.”
