Automatic Youth hails from the San Fernando Valley, Hollywood and Santa
Monica. The band springs from The Paul Green School of Rock in
Hollywood, CA where most members currently attend. The band formed with
the desire to perform original material and selected covers that best
show their varied influences.
First up on the vocals we have DYLAN NASH, 10.
Dylan cites Freddy Mercury, Steven Tyler and Iggy Pop as a few
of his major influences on vocals and Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin and
The Rolling Stones as a few of his favorite bands.
An engaging frontman and powerhouse vocalist, Dylan Nash
commands the stage with his moves, attitude and swagger.
Next up on guitar we have MAX BOUVRIE 13, Max cites Paul
Gilbert from Racer X and Dimebag Darrel from Pantera as two of his
major influences and Devil Driver, Pantera and Rush amongst a few of
his favorite bands. Max brings to the table a decidedly heavier sound to
Automatic Youth with his progressive and metal-influenced playing.
Next on guitar is ANDREW WELLS, Andrew has been playing
guitar for 6 years and his biggest influences are Eddie Van Halen,
Joe Satriani, George Lynch, Frank Zappa and Tom Morello...He listens
to The Raconteurs, the Arctic Monkeys, the White Stripes, Van Halen,
the Dead Weather, Chickenfoot, and Montrose.
RYAN GABRINETTI our multi talented Bass player is 14 and has been
playing for 6 years. He also plays guitar, drums, keyboards, mandolin
and tenor sax. His musical tastes varies but his big influences are Emerson
Lake and Palmer, Led Zeppelin, The Yardbirds, Frank Zappa and Jethro Tull.
His favorite bass players are Greg Lake, John Entwistle, Paul
McCartney, and Jack Bruce, bringing a blues and rock style to Automatic Youth.
Finally on drums we have JASON PAUL, 12. Jason's
influences on drums range from Carter Beauford from the Dave Matthews
Band to John Bonham from Led Zeppelin. He also lists The Red Hot Chili
Peppers and Godsmack amongst his bands of choice. Jason while being
only 11 years old gives Automatic youth its might and muscle pounding
out classic yet powerful drum patterns and fills.
The band just completed a small summer tour performing at
Fais Do Do, Ventura County Fair, opening up for The Chelsea Girls
at The Roxy and performing on stage with Seth Binzer (Shifty) of
Crazytown at Les Deux and a few other venues.
