DarkPool are an English three-piece ‘Dark Rock’ band, formed in Rushden, Northamptonshire, UK, in 2021. DarkPool is a three-piece rock band who create original material which often visits the darker side of life/death. The band is comprised of co-founders Steve Crawford (vocals, keyboards/synths, bass guitar, video production), Paul Kevill (guitars, backing vocals, audio producer) and Dave Reid (percussion/other instruments).

Style After the first release of Take This Pain Away, DarkPool have been compared to Pink Floyd, Nivarna, Lou Reed and Disturbed in comments on social media, which the guys think is all very flattering and positive. However, there’s certainly influences of blues, electronic music and early-rock all wrapped up in some overriding dark-themes explored in their material.
