Artist History The concept of this band came from humble beginnings... very humble beginnings. It started off at a high school talent show, and then turned in to a way to pass the time while we were hanging out (with high hopes of drawing in chicks). Around Christmas of 1999 and summer of 2000 guitarist Andy Harnett, singer Mac Constantine, and bassist Chris Testa got together to play covers and write some original songs, which was a lot of fun but we sucked pretty bad. At the end of that summer we stuck a song up on mp3.com under the name Bounce and all went back to our colleges not thinking much about the band. Then at UMass in a magical room in Baker stuff just started to come together, and a new band was formed with bassist Chris Testa, singer Mac Constantine, and new members lead guitarist Shay Barnes (who can solo better then the best of them), the best damn drummer in the world Rob Guest, and rhythm guitarist Tom Littlepage. We all got a house in Amherst for the summer and played covers and worked on original stuff. But as the summer started coming to an end guitarist Andy Harnett was brought back in, which added a really nice style and vision to the band. On Wednesday August 29th of 2001 until early in the morning of August 30th we spent 20 hours at Sound Techniques recording studio and made a 5 song demo CD with mixer Jason Hester. We have all returned to our separate colleges for the school year, but next summer we hope to be living on Cape Cod and playing a lot of shows, who the hell knows what the future will bring.
