Artist History
Nick and Steve were roomates in a place we affectionately call "the Hole", we were going to turn it into an underground club, but the water and heat went out on us on a very cold day in February (-50 degrees), so we had to leave or die, but we kept jamming once in a while, Nick made friends with a guy named Seth Proctor who wrote some wicked lyrics, and we got together and started working up some songs. We added Matt Janssen on drums, and about a month or so after our first practice together we took fourth place out of about 25 bands in the 1999 All State Band Search. Seth ran into some problems with Johnny Law, and is currently residing in the Cook Inlet Pre-trial Facility. Nick moved to vocals, and we added Joe Marineau on lead guitar. |
