Uther Pendragon was a young blood.
One day he was going to be king.
But that’s not what he dreamed of.
He dreamed about being in a band.
Uther was actually really good at playing the xylophone.
All he wished to do was to travel with other musicians and play their music to an audience.
But he was a prince.
And one day he was to rule the kingdom
There was no way for him to escape his fate…
One day a circus arrived to the city
The circus was of course accompanied with a band
The band was called 4 seconds of summer
They were Ashtonius, Michelangelo, Charmander and Lucien
Lucien had the voice of an angel
Ashtonius was miraculous with his maracas
Charmander could really use his finger on that lute
And Michelangelo.
Michelangelo knew how to make magic from his harp
4 seconds of summer were the perfect band
But something was missing
Many of their songs was missing the xylophone…
Uther would watch 4 seconds of summer play
And he could tell
This was where he was supposed to be
He should be there on stage with them
With his xylophone skills they would be invisible.
So when he knew his father wasn’t watching,
Uther approached the band, with his xylophone in a tight grip.
And boy, were they impressed
Every night for the next three weeks Uther would sneak out of the castle and play with his knew best friends at tavern.
Never before had he felt this alive
This what he wanted to do forever
He didn’t want to be king
He didn’t want to rule over a whole kingdom
He just wanted to play with his bandmates
They weren’t called 4 seconds of summer anymore
They were now a five-piece band
They were Charmander, Ashtonius, Lucien, Uther and Michelangelo. CALUM
They were 5 Seconds of Summer and they rocked everybody’s socks off
But sadly, all good things most come to an end
And Lucien, Michelangelo, Charmander and Ashtonius had to leave to play in another kingdom
They wanted Uther to come with them
But Uther knew he couldn’t
These weeks had been incredible,
But he was to be king soon
In honour of their friend Uther
The boys kept the name 5 Seconds of Summer
And there are rumours that they kept playing for many years
Many, many years after they left Camelot
The rumours even say that the magic in Camelot kept them young
And they are still playing their music to this day
Maybe you’ve heard of them…
Today Ashtonius, Lucien, Michelangelo and Charmander are more famous as Ashton, Luke, Michael and Calum…
