Lucas Ireland - Guitar, Vocals
Lucas Ireland is from Ahoskie, NC. He started playing music in the 6th grade, starting out on the saxophone and playing that through to the 10th grade, performing with the concert band and marching band. At age 12, he found a friend with a guitar and sparked his interest. By age 15, the urge to learn guitar was intense! Finally, he received one on October 31, 1997 (yes, Halloween). This was the turning point of his musical career and a highlight in life. He spends every day since struggling to make something out of it. Starting out learning covers and jamming for friends, he finally started to get it together, performing for folks at the local music scene, a small but well know venue in Murfreesboro, NC named Zakk's Coffee House. From there, he began to play with others in numerous bands over the years such as Symetrik Society, Shooting Cats with Arrows, Undercross, Unbroken, Modified, Scrapbook, and now in his own original creation Unghearted.
Joshua Thomas - Drums
Joshua Thomas is from Aulander, NC. His father was also a drummer and played for a local church when Joshua was still very young, which made him really fascinated with the instrument. He received a drum set from his mother for his birthday when he was 11 years old. At first, he didn't play very much. As a matter of fact, he let them sit and collect dust for a couple years before picking up his sticks again. When he was 13, he started to notice the instruments in the music he listened to, specifically the drums. From there he started learning covers. Starting with a lot of heavier stuff at first, Joshua began gradually improving his playing over the next few years. He worked on covers until he was 17 when, in the fall of 2019, he started playing with Unghearted and putting all that he had learned to use, creating the drums for their first album, "Steal My Life". At 18 at the time of their release, Joshua still enjoys playing heavy covers and is ultimately better than ever!
