Artist History The four members of YSIB have all been friends for a few years. The band began in 1995, when Shane and Brian realized they shared a love of punk rock and sarcasm, the two most important things to YSIB. Like all other bands, we started out as a joke, but then one day we realized we were jamming almost every day, and had written about 100 songs that we couldn't even play. We started playing some shows at clubs and parties, and we recorded an EP, entitled Pseudo-punk. We then went on hiatus for a while because Chris went to college in Arizona, but we got back together for a bit to record a new album called Preventable Car Accidents. Check it out.

Group Members Shane Regan -- Vocals, Bass; Brian Rogers -- Guitar, Vocals; Chris Jenkins -- Vocals, Guitar; Anthony Schmidt -- Drums

Instruments Guitar, Bass, Drums, Vocals... isn't that every band?

Press Reviews Not really any. We were mentioned in our high school's newspaper, but Shane and Anthony were in the Journalism class. Anyway, we got written up at listen.com... and that's about it.
