Cie Williams - Guitar & Vocals Born March 25, 1977, Springfield Ohio. He grew up in N. Lewisburg Ohio, and went to Triad high School. His main interests in high school where art, drafting, and mathmatics. He later studied Information Technology at Tecskills in Columbus Ohio. Cie started playing Guitar in 1994, and studied mainly Metallica, Megadeth, Pantera, and Type O Negative songs. However he did not start singing until 9 years later (2003) in a local cover band, one year before he started 7L9V9ls. Cie was in a few bands before starting 7L9V9ls. Those bands include; Brimstone, Poster God, and Pitch Black. "I like playing the guitar, and i like the way i feel when I play it. Playing in this band (7L9V9ls) enhances that feeling 100 times. This is a great team to be a part of."
Music is everything to me. Even if I'm not playing, or listening I will have some kind of rhythm in my head. The only reason I have a day job is so that I can afford to do the things I like to do (music). Playing music gives me a sense of purpose. Like it is what I was meant to do. To be on stage, and be in the zone is the greatest feeling I have ever experienced.
I want to create music that matters to people. Something that moves them on the inside, And I would like to be successful enough to quit my day job. Not quite there yet but we are getting close.
World peace would be nice (Can't we all just get along?). Free health care and food for everyone. not sure if that is possible but I would like to try.
I would ave to say the music of Metallica, Megadeth, and Pantera. the dynamic of those bands really inspired me to become a guitar player.
I feed off of depression, and anger. My own, not someone else's. I think that is why I don't experience those states long. Its therapy for me.
At first I get nervous. but once we start playing its like I become someone else. I feel powerful. Like a superhero, and sound is my superpower. Its awesome.
So far I am liking it. Love the streaming.
Seeing music being taken out of schools. Music helps with both science, and mathematics. Plus can act as therapy for some. We should be adding not subtracting from education.
I support as much as i can. Going to shows, buying local band shirts so I can wear them when I preform. Also standing, and cheering. If I have worked with a band before, and they are OK with it. I will help set up and break down equipment.
Forces of Nature, Hellraiser, Zuel, this blessed hatred, engraved darkness, Dark soul, Apt 664, Ton, Omeni, Slaves Among Death, Far From Eden, Desert Rockk, Four Star Revival, The Transylvania Hellhounds, Red Beast, and Saint Christopher. Just to name a few.
