Biography

Soak up the sounds , be enchanted by the performance and capture the magic !!!

Autumn 2005 saw the bringing together of 4 gifted musicians to create a sound and sight experience to be known as “ Kozmic Drive”

Jade, Tom, Emma and Gareth came from all walks of life and very different musical backgrounds but ultimately shared one goal– the need to get out there and ROCK!

Jade West (Lead Vocals)

After a blissful childhood with her 2 hippy parents, Jade started performing at the tender age of 10 and has since won 12 major national talent competitions, appeared in many T.V shows including a solo spot on ‘My Kind of Music' and her own TV show for HTV called ‘Jade's Journey.' She even had the privilege of performing at the Lyceum Theatre, London for HRH Prince Charles 50 th Birthday bash! After having the role of lead singer in original rock band LEVIN for 2 years together with other endless stage experience, Jade is truly qualified to be the ultimate rock n roll front person!!!

“Jade Evans(West) is blessed with a voice that could stop a juggernaut on black ice in mid-skid, possessing as it does a timbre that brings to mind the great torch singers of old.”

Steve Rastin – ‘The Bizz', The Journal, 23 rd July 2003

Tom West (Lead Guitar)

Tom is convinced he was actually born in 1950,and was the original founder of ‘Peace, Love and Harmony.' Tom has been playing since the age of 12 and has become an accomplished and exciting performer, having being compared to a reincarnation of the great Hendrix himself (this isn't just cause he can play with his teeth!) After being in a couple of bands and just missing out on being signed by Universal, Tom signed a publishing deal with writing partner West (above) and penned a song for the Swiss Pop Idol winner's debut album. A yearning to return to the stage kept resurfacing and now the ‘King of the Strings' is back where he rightly belongs!!

Emma Jayne-Gray (Bass Guitar +Cowbell)

The lovely Emma is the ultimate rock chick! Having always been a disciple of music (knowing almost all there is to know about the Beatles and The Doors), unbelievably only picked up the bass guitar about 5 years ago when she was begged to join original rock band LEVIN. The band went from strength to strength and they trawled the length and breadth of the country having riotous laughs in the process. After the band parted ways Emma was not sure which of her many talents to pursue, also being a prolific artist and gifted dancer. After heavy contemplation, Emma flew off to take a degree in dance, hence she is now known not only for her great musicianship but also her funky moves on and off the stage!
