Artist History When 4 young men were in 8th grade, they decided to form a band. They started off covering some songs and eventually wrote original music. This band's name was Guided By Fire. After some club hopping and several recording sessions, Guided by Fire decided to call it quits. A new band rose from the ashes of Guided by Fire, and that is Midriff. This new band is all the original members except for a new guitarist, Aaron Lovely. Chris Moulton (former guitarist) had moved on to play solo acoustic acts in "EverySmithEver" and play drums for a screamo band "Departure From Apathy," who will be playing some shows on school vacations and going on tour next summer!(YAY!). Midriff is a band hailing from Scarborough, Maine. They like to mix up their music, and blend different genres together. They incorporate styles varying from Emo to Punk/Metal to Jazzy Funk stuff. They formed in late 2002, and have just recently recorded a 5 song EP which is currently in the mixing process. Their 2 song demo featuring "That's why I don't take part in politics" and "What the Readers Want" has been officially released for any of you that would like a copy. They played their first show at the Scarborough High School Poetry night, and were unfortunately cut from the school talent show due to lack of equipment at the audition. Since then, these boys have played at a handful of parties, and attempted a performance at "It Like Is, Though fest." Unfortunately, this show was shut down near the beginning due to an "unsafe" environment, and a venue that was considered to be a fire hazard. They are currently in the process of setting up more shows in the future.
