How long have you been a band?
We have been a band since August of 2012
How was the band formed?
The original drummer and Curtis wanted to start a rock side project from their hardcore band. They asked me if I wanted to sing, and I was down as hell.
Then I got Zach in the band because he's pretty much my brother, and we had played in bands together before.
Where are you from?
I am from Memphis, TN, but I have lived in Nashville since 2007, so Nashville is my home now.
Everyone else is also from the Nashville area.
How is the scene in your area? How has it helped you grow as band?
It's really cool, but because it is Music City, it can sometimes seem over-saturated. It's been great being surrounded by so many great musicians of all different genres and backgrounds. We have each made so many friends in the industry because of how many people here are involved in the music scene.
How would you describe your band and the kind of music you play?
We are just four guys trying to write music that reflects how we feel and what sounds good to us. I write about things that piss me off or make me sad, and luckily the other guys write stuff that compliments those feelings.
Who are your musical influences?
My personal influences involve Yellowcard, Balance & Composure, Taking Back Sunday, and some other goodies.
Tell us about your upcoming tour with Cove and Nest
This is our first full tour, and we are all SO excited. We are very proud to be able to hit some of the coolest spots in the country to represent where we are from.
Even before this tour, Cove and Nest had been two of my favorite bands, and not just locally. They both bring so much to the table, and it's truly an honor to share the road with them.
You recently put out a split with Have Mercy, tell us about it!
We have gotten such a great response from it! When Chris(No Sleep Records Founder) asked us if we wanted to do a split with them, we were immediately down, due to how awesome their previous material is. Those guys rule, and their songs kick ass!
How excited are you to play Bled Fest this year?
Excited is definitely an understatement! The lineup is crazy, and it's definitely overwhelming to have been asked to be a part of it.
