Artist History Four More Years started back in 1998 when Matt, Carson, Robert and their friend Alex started a band called PCP. In 2000, Alex moved to Sarasota and Illicit (the new name) was back to bass, guitar and vocals. A year later, they changed their name to Four More Years, got Jimmy Hosler to play drums, Carson picked up trumpet, they aquired Evan Goode as their trombonist and Nathan Sanders as their tenor sax player, establishing a solid horn section, and they wrote their first song, "You Are Here, But Why?". Since then, they have recorded a five-song demo and played numerous shows around the Tampa Bay area, stretching into Ybor City as well. They started with house parties and small shows, and moved onto larger shows at clubs and venues. They are currently planning more shows and recording a full length album, to be released at the end of August, 2003.
