Artist History Having come from different musical backgrounds, Four's members each play an important part in defining our current sound. Hailing from Maine, Four's splash of metal based mayhem has taken them into the Boston/ New York scene in just a few short months.

Group Members Vocals: Jay Staples Growing up with older sisters gave me an "in" to cool bands like Queen, Styx and Kansas. Bands with complex time changes and good vocals. I love all heavy music. When bands throw melody in it's just "Icing on the cake". The stage is my home, the studio my vacation! Guitar: Eric Wright Lewiston Maine is the home. Influences include Dokken, Motley Crue, Racer X, Testament, Greg Howe, Ritchie Koltzen and more. Bass: Tony Cortez (T) My hightlight has got to be jamming with Zack Wylde of Ozzy. Into Duran Duran, Motley Crue. Percussion: Mike Salois Graduate of Berkley College of Music and hailing from Haverill Mass. A progressive style of playing sheped by Kings X, Rush, Dream Theater, Buddy Rich, Nico McBrain, Neal Peart and more.

Instruments Mike uses a DW Satin Oil 7 piece with DW hardware and Zildjian cymbals. Tony uses Peavy + Tmax. Eric uses anything and everything that works when needed.
