Hi there! Your lucky enough to have come across 4 young men in the midst of learning a great deal about many dynamics and aspects of this life. We all have the obsession of creating this art and music. Chances are you may know the feeling. We are delivering a blend of music quite different than the norm. The most heard comment after a show is something like "That just blew my mind to &%@!*^& pieces!"
Although us four have been playing together in different situations for quite a while, this specific venture is relatively new.
Ryan and Arnie Rodriguez are brothers who grew up mostly grew up in a small city between Sacramento and San Francisco. After school they both moved to Texas for a few amazing years where they jammed all the time and played lots of Pantera covers. They transplanted themselves into Marin County and through a dramatic mix and mash of the local bands hooked up with amazingly talented musicians Jon Death(keys) and Tim Baker(bass) who had been terrorizing the neighborhood since their crib days. Now everyone is just one big happy family who likes to eat lots of really healthy food and make reall music.
All the tunes you hear will always be home recorded and engineered by Arnie. We are just going to keep going and going and going!
Who ever or where ever you are, please do say hello!
Much love
-The Band

Lol, of course you can! Thanks for the well wishes and same to you :) I do have to say upon listening to your music, you somewhat remind me of Incubus with a little bit of Modest Mouse, especially on that last song... but definitely a unique style.
