Incursa

Bio

Incursa, meaning in Latin to "Strike Against", are a bunch of strapping young lads with an ambition to do good things.

Incursa was formed in late 2002 as a four-piece, and in 2004 grew to become a five-piece to take out 1st place in the 2004 Coke SmokeFree RockQuest.

With every member of Incursa being influenced with different genres of music, they do not feel restrained in limiting themselves to one specific theme. Playing live is definitely a forte of Incursa's, they really enjoy playing to an audience, drummer Jordan says "The crowd really bring the best out of us".

Band Members:
Mike Pomare (lead vocals)
Sam McCarthy (guitar, vocals)
Dave Wong (guitar)
Jordan Arts (drums)
Graham Scherer (bass)

Yeah we all thought Rival State were robbed, they deserved a whole lot more. And after looking back at the semi-finals doco of the rockquest series i am left wondering why hutt-valley based band 'slo-dance' didnt make it through to the national final. I think they would have been a place if they had been through, big ups to rival state for coming to our gig the other night in grey lynn, much respect. Very Happy

In an arrangement with the national high school rockquest organisers and The Edge radio network, NZ On Air offers a New Recording Artist grant, a Music Video grant, a place on an NZ On Air radio hit disc, a feature in our Fresh NZ Music magazine and the services of our indomitable pluggers to the band that wins the national rockquest final. Past winners of the NZ On Air/Edge Radio Airplay Award include Wanganui band, The Have and Christchurch rockers, Falter.

This year's winner is a band called Incursa from St Peter's College in Auckland. Expect to hear Incursa making incursions on The Edge airwaves soon.
