Artist History I (Jim) Have known Brandon and Chris for a long time, a few years or more with Chris and Brandon since fifth grade. I have been in one band with both of them before but it broke up before it saw the light. I then formed "Invention Five" with Brandon and Chris and a drummer named Matt Szkalrz. Matt brought in Ryan Ferlott but Ryan and Matt already had a guitarist lined up and they wouldnt play without him, so Brandon was out. Later on down the road Invention five got a bassist and dropped Chris cause we no longer needed a keyboardist and he missed a lot of practices. Invention five and I have recently gone our seperate ways but it's all good, no hard feelings. I have also been in a non serious version of this band with Bret and Brandon before but they never worked out. then I formed this as a side band and met Nick through internet and Cameron through Chris and then later on down the road we tried bret but that didn't work out so we put cam back on drums (he was playing bass while bret was in the band) and I wanted this girl I knew to join who played bass and it turned out to be one of cams good friends. So yeah now leslie is in the badn and does backup vocals and plays bass....and thats the story...
