About Us

The Band
We are True Collision. Cornwall’s Premier 3 piece High Energy Show Band!
Originally formed in 2005 under the name Tera Nova. In 2011 we changed our band name to True Collision and the rest is history.
We have played many Hundreds of shows all the way from Penzance to Somerset and we are ready and excited to play many more.

Our repertoire includes some original material and covers (from the past and present), to suit many tastes.

Loving to entertain, we put a lot of effort into performing a rocking shows! And have been described as a “High Energy Power Trio”.        
We have also had our music played on the radio including being very lucky to gain the attention of David White on the BBC Radio Cornwall’s “Introducing” show.

Please be assured True Collision always put on a professional show with high quality equipment.
