    Artist description
    If life's a Bitch then DRIVEN wrote the soundtrack.... Out of the Bronx, New York, A gang of four with like minds and hearts go against the grain of fluffy Pop and Hip Hop dominating noise to play Nu-Metal/Alternative Rock music with meaning and power. Devoted local fans compare elements of DRIVEN's music to Icons such as the influential Soundgarden and Godsmack with the power and emotion of Staind and Puddle of Mudd while having overall sound mechanics stand alone. Based on the local success of their first four song demo, DRIVEN is gearing up to promote the release of their first full length CD incisively titled "NewGround". "NewGround" an 11 song dynamic range of crushing guitar melodies, tight, bellowing rhythm section and thought provoking razor sharp vocals; demands a soulful ear and strong of heart to endure the vibes of this album. The band plans to progress their careers by building a strong momentum with hardcore touring and great live performances that are sure to raise some brows and pucker some brown-eyes.

    Artist History
    Since the bands inception in 1994, DRIVEN has performed at shows ranging from small bars and clubs (The Low Down, CBGB's) to large over-packed venues (Fordham University,etc.). DRIVEN has appeared on Reaction Records (NYC) compilation CD of unsigned bands volume 6. Each member , self-taught musicians of +10 years had stripped downed their individual and very different musical tastes to form DRIVEN's sound; where ugliness and beauty meet. Phil Salveggi(Vocalist, main lyric composer), Dave Donnelly(Guitarist, lyric and main music composer), "Philthy" Phil Fragale (Bassist, music composer) and Stefano Terzulli (percussion and music composer) see life through their music; much like a diamond in the rough. Strength and endurance will yield timeless reward.
