Artist History The band was created in Elmhurst, IL. They went by the name Sounds From The Stairs for the first couple years. The band reformed at Illinois State University with NBC's Will and Grace star Sean Hayes. At ISU the group performed to record-setting audiences. After college Jason and Don went into the studio to record their first full album 'Globe Me'. A fun and exciting look at thirteen finely crafted songs. Since Globe Me the group has pressed forth and created two more albums; 5:12 and Gyroscope. They now hope that someone with some business savvy will take advantage of the rich library of music that awaits.
