In September 2006, two young musicians (Guitarist Rob and Drummer Tom) got together to form a Punk band Named Whitethorne, They began writing songs and before long met a bass player named Ash whom joined the band from first meeting. Together the three of them formed a tight brotherly bond and a hard Punk sound however in march 2007 playing a gig they met a band called Naked Accomplice whos bass player "Shaun" (nicknamed Jesus for his appearance) they formed a tight friendship with, A relationship that would prove GREAT following Shauns exit from Naked Accomplice whom were becoming to Poppy for him. In October 2007 Rob, Tom and Ash were getting bored with the style of punk music they were playing and found a new sound of 70s classic rock (such as Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin) mixed with 80s metal (Such as Diamond Head, Metallica) with a modern twang of previous. Moving Ash to second guitar they were in need of a bassist and alas how Shaun was brought on board as the driving bass player...Now as a thriving four piece with dual lead guitars, Acid Rain packs a wallop of Punk energy into thier shows while playing an ear friendly mix of Classic Rock and Metal with notable blues and Southern influence.
Their sound has been described as "Think Jimi Hendrix having Sex with Metallica at Ozzfest while the Ramones watch...and everyone's on acid."
