    Artist description
    VOPC are a band of musicians who were tired of being on a local scene where all bands and artists, INCLUDING THEMSELVES, were compared too and sounded like Creed and other like bands in that genre. Once the took a step outside themselves to actually re-discover and invoke their true influences...the signature VOPC sound was born. Part hard rock, pop, and southern rock, the boys from Kentucky come by their name honestly.

    Artist History
    Founder of VOPC Heath Glisson set out with no goals in mind when he began playing guitar. He just loved music and everything associated with it. His mother and father had surrounded him with music from the very start. Along with his brother Kyle, they were exposed to every style of music imaginable and then beyond that as well. Chaney and Heath actually grew up together and they started playing together at age 13. Several forks in the road and they parted ways. Heath and Kyle forged forward into the wild blue yonder. Once they started playing in and out of local bands the realized, no local bands had an identity of their their own. Everyone was playing the same covers, everyone was imitating the popular bands of the time. Heath,Kyle and Chaney realized their lives and the lives of those around them were a result of everyone being "Victims of Pop Culture." Well it was born within that. Heath put down the electric and picked an almost forgotten instrument in modern rock. The acoustic guitar. He started writing material. Sometimes a song a day. Never writing about broad topics, always pulling from personal and intimate topics. As friends started hearing the music, they couldn't believe what they heard. Roots based acoustic rock, dipped in a soulful southern rock voice...but with top 40 pop sensibility. After going through several lineup changes, the first drummer Heath had every played a show with at the tender age of 13 walked back into their lives. As the album nears completion, the world will be at the perfect point for the music of VOPC.
