Artist History One Like Son started out as a High School garage band in 1992 with members Dewan Watts, Bob Brown, and Stephen Poff. Over the years the band has gone through many members only to have the group breaking up in 1998. Stephen Poff the driving force and songwriter for the group decided to carry on using the name and finish the body of work that he had accumulated at that time. The upcoming record entitled "Goodbye" is a reflection of the hurt and acceptance of the demise of the band and the eventual decision to move on. It is a death and rebirth if you will.
