Artist History Josh and Erik met in High School and (with Joe Bondi) formed "Dog in a Fishbowl" (with a lot of help from Steve). Two years later, Josh would go on a walking exploration of the U.S., and amongst many stops would find himself drawn to New Orleans. There, he met Melissa, who was at the time performing on Bourbon Street. Eventually, Josh and Melissa would get marrried, and Erik and Jenn would travel to New Orleans to help them move back to New England (one of a few times). Once back in New England, they would all collaborate with Steve on his original material, and eventually The Uncle Steve Band was born.
