Wizard Castle Takeoff is an alternative rock band, drawing influence from progressive and blues rock, along with some elements of post rock and jazz. The music we record respects the techniques and styles of an older era, avoiding overly-refined sounds and excessive computer manipulation. We usually stick to real instruments performed in single takes.

Wizard Castle Takeoff began as a home studio music project by Wil Barnett. As a student at the University of Alabama, Wil worked with roommate Jordan Belcher to produce an EP of orignial material. Wil helmed the recording and production process, along with serving as primary songwriter and performer for most instrumentation and vocals. Jordan played bass guitar in the recordings, along with contributing songwriting and vocals. Good friend Joe Florence provided lyrical content and appeared as a vocalist in the recording of his lyrical piece. 

 Upon Wil relocating to Birmingham, AL, Wizard Castle Takeoff began to change shape. No longer simply a studio project, Wizard Castle Takeoff is developing into a live band and preparing to play shows in the Birmingham area. 

 Our current live band lineup is:

 Wil Barnett - Vocals, Guitar
 Joey Kennamer - Drums
 Andrew Dennan - Keyboards
 Tyler Evans - Bass

AKA WET DIDGERIDOO, member of the bands Gorangutang and Funkadelic

My name's Dave! I compose for film and games. I have a focus in epic, cinematic, hybrid orchestral scores but love everything from metal to electronic, and ragtime to pop.
