Biography:
Although they are considered a New Zealand band, I Am Giant formed somewhere around Banbury, England in 2008. At that time the band consisted of Ed Martin - vocals, Paul Matthews on the bass, Shelton Woolright on the drums, with Max O'Donnell (2008-2010) and later Aja Timu (2010-2012) on guitars. Although Matthews and Woolright have remained as the core of the band, there have been several line up changes, including new lead singer Ryan Redman (2014-2015) after Ed Martin left to go solo in December 2014.

Living the Crash : I Am Giant – (Drop D Tuning)
Intro: Eb – Gm – F – Eb – Gm – F (x2)

As lucid as the dream,

Where you wake behind the wheel.
