Mourning Stone is: Wes Dinwiddie Adam Maxfield Buy music here BOOTLEG METAL: So let’s get things started with the name. Who came up with the name and what’s behind it? MOURNING STONE: Great question! Adam actually came up with the name. Our first band logo was of a huge medieval tombstone, with a sort of purple overlay. It was absolutely hideous! The name really fits our personalities. Most of our songs deal with fighting depression, anxiety, and loss; we simply draw from life experience. Instead of drab and grim as the name may suggest, we like to keep it as upbeat as possible… but that could change at any time, who knows? We’re not dead set on a method to the madness, how we should sound, or anything else. We thought it was a cool name and we’re simply just being ourselves when making our music. We make music that we love to listen to and if anyone else likes it, that’s a good bonus!...
Music will always find it’s way to us, with or without business, politics, religion or any other bullshit attached. Music survives everything, and like God, it is always present. It needs no help and suffers no hindrance. (Eric Clapton)
