7 Days Torn
7 Days Torn
Anthony met Mykal during the summer of '98. Mykal started playing guitar for the band that Anthony was in (Mason-Dixon at that time, but the band changed the name some 10+ times in as many shows). They endured a few personnel changes before Ron and Boyitz joined the band
Anthony and Mykal are the only members from the original line-up.
After a few years and the process of elimination, they found the right combination with Ron and Boyitz.
7 Days Torn has moved boundaries with their music. Since 2000 they have gained tremendous exposure in Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia. Maryland and Pennsylvania's radio stations are providing both promotions and airplay. Local and college newspapers continue to write favorable reviews. The band has seen their fan base increase by the hundreds within the years, and this is evident through live performances.

7 Days Torn (7DT) stands as a formidable presence redefining the boundaries of music in today's modern world. The band derives its powerful assembly from deep within the foundations of their souls. Through the exhale of harmonic vocals, rich riffs, and ground breaking grooves, they command energy and touch the listener with genuine sentiment.
Anthony Hurley's substantial sense of melodic hook and soul-seeking lyrics met with Mykal Drexler in mid-1998. Mykal rendered his celestial guitar tones and strong studio skills to the blend. Through adversity and divine design, they then discovered Ron Squires and Boyitz to finalize the quartet. Ron provides an unassailable rhythm bound tight and solid to Baltimore's best bottom end, the Boyitz.
With ferocious intensity and courageous drive, 7DT demands its rank among modern rock's addiction list. Though 7DT has climbed to a well-respected local status, they are stopping at nothing to gain the footholds they need to be seen and heard on an international level. Their first independent release has gained recognition at record speed and a new studio cd is in the works. This is a goal-oriented group of musicians that never disappoint. Their original sound and great live performances keep them on the cutting edge of music today.
Music:
MTV picked up 10 tracks from the band's self-titled debut album and played them on Road Rules, The Inferno and The Real World.
