Artist History
earth minus one was formed in Poughkeepsie, NY in the fall of 1998, when a humble young bass player named Frank (pronounced Frank) asked a singer friend Rik(his name's like an A student - no C's ) if he wanted to jam. That they did. Upon finding that they enjoyed the experience, they thought they might call upon some of Frank's oldband mates to sort of, shall we say… rekindle the fire? Yes we shall.A frantic search began for his two former band mates, Gary and Larry (both not muppets). Here is where you need to pay attention. Gary was sighted one day at Frank's mom's house (not a mother joke) seeing that she is also his mother. Larry was exceptionally difficult to locate because he had moved almost 30 minutes away (!) and hadn't been heard from in hours. Now the hard part. How could Frank and Rik convince Gary and Larry to leavetheir cushy job at the arcade to start a band again? After much prodding, they gave in.The first jam session proved that the magic had still not left the follicly challenged boys.As sparks flew from Frank's bass and Gary's guitar (probably cigarette ashes), Rik sanglike his pants had caught fire (they had, from the ashes) and Larry played with thereckless abandon of a drummer who hadn't picked up his sticks in three years. Four songs were written and so was a new beginning. Since then, earth minus one have built a strong local following through theirenergetic live performances, local and college radio airplay and intimidation tactics.They are experienced (yet young and handsome) musicians having the time of their life, which especially is evident in their live show. Please pop in the CD, stand up, brush your teeth, and enjoy. NOTE: Since this was written, Larry has been replaced by Chris Wallner.....all the remaining members will be replaced shortly. |
