We as a collective band have a countless number of influences to our musical journeys. There's a lot of metal, rock, worship, some jazz and country, and a little for Silly Songs with Larry (That's Alex talking!)
Sounds Like
the weight of Pillar, the message of David Crowder Band, and a hint of lemon
CHECK US OUT AT NICKEL CITY!
We have our first rough drafts online for all of you to hear, so I hope you enjoy how it sounds/and will sound when we record a more legit EP! We just recruited Kiel MacDonald on lead guitar, and are very pleased with what has been brought and excited about what is to come. The Found strives to be a band that if people don't like the message we convey, they can at least commend us on our efforts to effectively play our respective instruments. In other words, if you don't like what we have to say, fine. But if we are able to help one person's heart reconsider the role that Jesus Christ has in his/her life, this band has been a COMPLETE SUCCESS. This is all for Christ. Period.
Andrew(Bass/Vocals): "God has given us all gifts, and mine (along with my band members) have a gift for music, so we're gunna use those gifts for the One who gave them to us...JESUS! I've been playing since my 5th grade, and I have heavy music influences from Metallica, Pillar, Charles Mingus, Falling Up, the Seatbelts, Duke Ellington, Blues Brothers, and Dizzy Gilespi. Oh, and Weird Al.
Alex (Drums/Vocals): As a child, my parents and I had no idea why I always wanted to hit stuff with my hands, or grab pencils and start hitting tables all the time. Now that I have been seriously practicing drums for over almost 7 years, made clear by God, I now know why: It has always been meant to glorify the One God of Heaven and Earth.my musical journey had a heavy beginning with Korn, Metallica, and Papa Roach to name a few. As time progressed, my influences spread to Dave Weckl and Buddy Rich (killer jazz drummers), Dave Matthews Band, a little Goo Goo Dolls (hey, it's all about the catchy grooves they have!). Of course, I will always enjoy the heavy side, with bands like Pillar, Thousand Foot Krutch, Led Zeppelin, and Falling Up.
Doug (Guitars): Among the three of us i'm the newby to the music side of life. I've been playing the guitar since october '04 I think... i dont really remember when exactly I started. My liking of music is very very wide, i like everything from "as i lay dying" to "Wintersleep". i also have a great love for techno, but i wont go into that being this is a rock group. i would like to say thanks to a few people who have made me who i am now, among them would be chris odell, brett best, scott ramsey aka sweaty and the "bassest" andrew hartman. those guys and others who i havent said are like brothers to me. among all i would like to saw thanks to our Lord and Father Jesus Christ. withouth him, nobody would be.
Kiel (Guitars/Vocals): I am the token ninja of the band. I am Boojitsu and I will be your final The Found member introducing himself. I was the last member (so far) added to the band and I have been a friend of Alex's (the drummer) since middle school. We've played a few gigs together and our, the band's, love for God and desire to worship him through song / music only increases as we continue to do it more and more. A big thanks to all our friends, families, and supporters for helping us, encouraging us, and loving us. Without you, we are just a couple of guys in a garage. Your continued support is and will always be greatly appreciated. Peace, Grace, and God Bless you all.

so... sorry i hadn't gotten the guitar recording for the song... I'm such a failure :(. No idea when i'll get it done, hopefully soon though. Maybe this weekend? we'll see. sorry again.
so the camcorder cassie used was recording on a video tape and not on a digital disc. This means I can only stream it but don't have the proper software / stuff to do that, so if you or someone you know can do it, let me know so I can get you the camcorder. I have a usb + television hook up chords (red, yellow, white). Let me know ! C u guys tomorrow(?)
