Artist History TEMPER WAS ESTABLISHED IN THE WINTER OF 1994 IN THE BASEMENT OF A CONDEMNED HOUSE (A.K.A. THE DUNGEON), IN NORTH SALT LAKE BY DUSTAN NEIL AND CHAD BRINKERHOFF. FROM THESE MEAGER BEGINNINGS TEMPER STARTED TO BUILD ITS SOUND. BY EARLY 1995, THEY WERE PLAYING BARS AND PARTIES ALL OVER THE STATE. IN THE FALL OF 1996 THE BAND ADDED JASON HARRIS TO ITS ARSENAL AND CONTINUED ITS SONIC ATTACK ON UTAH. TRAGEDY STRUCK IN FEBRUARY OF 1997 WHEN ALL OF THE BANDS EQUIPMENT (AND THE BASS PLAYER’S HOUSE) BURNED IN A FIRE. DOWN BUT NOT OUT, THE BAND RE-GROUPED AND CAME BACK STRONGER THAN EVER. WITHIN A MONTH TEMPER WAS FULLY FUNCTIONING AGAIN. IN THE SPRING OF 1998, THE BAND ACQUIRED ADAM NELL (A LONG TIME FRIEND AND PREVIOUS BANDMATE). WITH RENEWED DRIVE, THE BAND RECORDED ITS FIRST ALBUM. IN FALL 2001 TEMPER REPLACED LONGTIME BASSIST CHAD WITH BRYAN BISHOP. WE ARE READY TO HIT IT HARD AND HEAVY..........
