Artist History
Towards the end of their high school days, there was a party in need of a band. Four long time friends got together and started jamming. Adding another guitarist over the next few months brought another dimension to the group. When looking for a singer, the band didn't have to look any further than their drummer Adam and guitar player Geoff. The original lineup remains in tact with the exception of a few expendable bass players. The rhythm section has been firmly planted down with the recent addition of Ryan on bass. Whether it is a party, opening gig, or a headlining show, the most important thing to the expendables is playing music, and having a good time. The band has been together for almost four years, and has really integrated its influences in a unique way to develop a style that is all their own. Although satisfied with their latest release No Time to Worry on the independent label Rude Boy Records, the live show is where the Expendables are at their best. Be sure to catch them around Calfornia or maybe across the country in their short bus. |
