Artist History
ORIGINALLY FORMED FOR FUN BY JASON MATTICE AND ABE LOMAX. WET NICKEL DREW THE ATTENTION OF SONG WRITER MIKE MORRELL, WHO IS CONSIDERED A CO-FOUNDER OF THE BAND.
THE 3 AMIGO'S BEGAN WRITING SONGS TOGETHER AND LIKED THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN THEM. SO, THEY DECIDED TO TAKE THE BAND SERIOUSLY AND STARTED LOOKING FOR MEMBERS TO COMPLETE THE LINE-UP.
IN THEIR SEARCH FOR A SHREDDING LEAD GUITAR THEY HOOKED UP WITH BRIAN NOTVEST, WHO KNEW MIKE FROM WORK. THEN CAME A DRUMMER (HE DIDN'T LAST).
ALTHOUGH, WHILE WITH THIS DRUMMER THE BAND STARTED PUTTING THEIR NAME OUT WHICH GATHERED THE INTEREST OF KRIS FLETCHER.
KRIS (A FRIEND OF BRIAN'S) HAD JAMMED THE GUITAR AT PARTIES WITH MEMBERS FROM WET NICKEL AND EXPRESSED INTEREST IN RUNNING SOUND FOR THEIR SHOWS. HE CAME OVER TO CHECK THEM OUT AND HAD A UPSIDE DOWN BASS GUITAR PUT IN HIS FACE AND WAS ASKED TO PLAY.
AFTER A COUPLE OF SHOWS TOGETHER IT HAD BECOME EVIDENT THAT A NEW DRUMMER WAS NEEDED, AND SO THE SEARCH BEGAN...
WET NiCKEL SWORE NOT TO TAKE THE FIRST DRUMMER AVAILIBLE SO GUESS WHAT? JEFF HUFFMAN FINALLY CAME (HE'S THE YOUNGEST, AND HAS THE MOST STAMINA!).
AND THUS, THE PUZZLE WAS COMPLETED. 6 GUYS WITH THE BEST MUSICAL REPATOIRE AROUND. WET NiCKEL MUST BE SEEN TO BE BELIEVED. |
