Artist History Sudden Epidemic was started in 2001 with just two guitars, two practice amps, and a single microphone. Tyler Goodman (lead guitar) and Jordan Daniel (rythym guitar and lead vocals) were the founding members of the band. Basic guitar riffs built into full songs. Mitchell Daly and Kyle Pilon have recently joined the band as bass (Mitchell) and drums/percussion (Kyle). Sudden Epidemic plays a new form of melodic punk/emo (tarka) with lots of hard hitting power chords, insane drum solos, and massive bass. There is also a lighter side to Sudden Epidemic - some more alternative-inspired acoustic songs can also be found on their eps/cds. "Another Day At The Carnival" is one of the first singles from Sudden Epidemic (off The Currently Untitled EP and Another Day At The Carnival). Other singles from SE include: "Cold Water", "Not My Fault", "No Control Of Sunlight", "Day's A Waste", and "For Katie". They are currently working on our first EP, The Currently Untitled, and our first full album, Quarantine. They also plan to play live multiple times in Los Alamos over the next year or so. Sudden Epidemic will be taking a break from playing gigs and recording for awhile, and Tyler and Jordan will be working alone to divise new songs, complete riffs and bass lines, write some new lyrics, etc. Old-school Sudden Epidemic. Jordan and Tyler are also very busy with their acoustic trio side project, Second Glance, in which they both play guitar and sing. Ian Wright from Mess With Texas joins them as acoustic guitar to complete the Second Glance trio.
