    Artist History
    The band officially started in 2002. Alex Breyer had worked previously with such Cincinnati bands as Bingo Smith, the Jackdaws, and Night Kitchen. Brett Trisch had played with Bessemer out of Milwaukee. Brett and Alex had played together on and off for more than a year. Brett took a year off to study drumming at the Muscian's Institute in LA. In that time, Alex studied bass under jazz pro Joe Policastro. Afterward, the two reunited, with bassist Ryan Harrell joining the ranks. A strong appreciation for older bands like The Who, Kinks, and the Beatles laid the foundation to making music that sounds more contemporary, like Pixies or Flamming Lips. There is truely an original sound here, but influences do seep in. The band played heavily with success in 2003 and recorded a single for the 2003 Unlike Label compilation (http://www.unlike.com). Ryan has since left for law school. Brett and Alex are currently recording a full CD and looking for the next bass player.
