Zach, Jon, Simon, and Mike Nienow (our original rhythm guitarist) all grew up together on Hilton Head Island. Zach and Jon have been playing together, in many different incarnations (and sometimes just the two of them if no one else was around) for 10 years. Simon was originally a bassist, which is why we didn't play with him, but he switched to guitar after learning 'Flight of the Bumblebee' on the bass. We drank with Heyward a lot, and when Mike moved to Chicago, heyward stepped up as our new axe man (sharing the lead role w/Simon, and playing a lot of lead too).
Zach was accepted to Berklee College of Music in 2004, but hasn't gone because of his 2 bands in Columbia (the other being Roni Zagoria and the Whole Lotta Man Band).
We met Matt through a mutual friend and he has been playing Roni's keyboard w/us ever since.
We were 'discovered' in the summer of 2003, because we practice in a storage shed, where almost every band in Columbia practices (not the same shed, but the same complex). We were booked on a punk rock festival and started getting gigs ever since.
Our 2nd show ever was named 'one of the top 10 live shows of 2003' in SC's official State Paper. Cher was also on that list. Awesome.
Our influences range from The Residents to Nomeansno to Tool to Tortoise to Tori Amos to Zappa to Floyd to Holst to Mr. Bungle to NIN to the Pixies to Slint to Brainiac to Primus to Ween to Sleepytime Gorilla Museum to Devo to Antony and the Johnsons to the Mars Volta to Stevie Wonder to James Brown to Parliament to Gwar to Helmet to Jane's Addiction to the Vandals to Suicidal Tendencies and the Infectious Grooves to Wu Tang, and so on. Music is all we do. At least one of us likes something from every genre of music, that's why we do it. We love it. Sometimes we like to shred, we always like things that sound beautiful, and we like to utilize dynamics and mood changes to get the audience going.
That's probably enough for now.
Thank you.
