Artist History How do a trio of no-named college kids transform into one of the biggest local rock bands in Chicago? Well, the answer to that question we still cannot figure out, but Triple Lindie did it. With a few local shows and a record deal on the way, the guys from TL are living it up. "We're just doing what we love to do," claims Perri. "It's funny because I had a dream one night that Kane was singing and playing guitar, Jon was drumming, and I played bass... and somehow we ended up on TRL...go figure." Well they might not be on TRL just yet, but they are definitely progressing. "When I got home in Bartlett this summer," Kane says, "I was in a big depression because my girlfriend broke up with me, so I started writing these songs to vent out my feelings and emotions. I have all the sad, slow, piano-potential, breakup songs to go along with the angry 'how can you do this to me' songs. And then Jon mixes his love songs for his girlfriend, and we have one messed up album." "One minute your laughing, and the next minute you want to dig yourself a hole to cry in," Cordell states. Cordell has been raised in a music family. "My dad played the drums, so then he got my older brother Chris into it [drums]. Then I picked up guitar when I was in the 5th grade, and I've been practicing guitar and drums ever since." Kane has been playing guitar for almost 2 years now. "I got an acoustic Seagull for Christmas in 1999, and I picked it up quick," Kane says. "I played piano a little bit when I was younger." Perri has been practicing bass for about 4 years. "Kane and I don't let the years of music experience hold us back, we just do what we want until we got it." Nothing is holding them back. They will start recording their album this summer. - David Moore, The Daily Herald
