ABOUT ACCURSED
Extended Bio
Formed in 2019, Connecticut-based metal band ACCURSED was brought together by a shared passion of guitarist Dave Lee and drummer Lee Swanson for old-school melodic death metal. With the recent additions of Chris Dwyer on bass and Will Devereaux on vocals, the band solidified its lineup and began to bring their musical vision to life.
The band independently released their debut EP Ascension in January of 2025 marking a new chapter in their journey. The band continues to write and record new music and is currently working on their next releases.
Over the past year, they’ve been tearing through New England's music scene, playing packed venues and building a fiercely loyal following. Their blend of intricate melodies, driving rhythms, searing vocals, and energetic live performances have made them a favorite among concertgoers.
