  • Bio

    now:.. Matt Gunar Moody, MDA (Lead Vocals, Lead Bass, Lead Beard), left the experience of making the Shadow Plains cult Favorite, Madison (xoxo records, 2005), with the taste of milk and honey. After a lavish month celebrating its release with a whirlwind "Tour of the Vengeful Deserts", he found himself malaria-stricken, road-weary, clinging to his beard in his half-awake, half-asleep coma of desperation that had taken over what was once the life of a shaggy-haired-care-free-peace-touting-flower-tossing-neon-throwing-lightning-rod-miracle of a pop superstar... On February Twenty-Eighth, Twenty-O-Six, Moody climbed from his bed a bald, heavily-bearded, whisp of a man --But a man, none-the-less!-- and rang his Latin/Japanese/Chinese/White butler to find him a glass to toast with! he had written his next epic masterpieces ENTIRELY IN HIS DRUG-ADDLED, POST-MALARIA-ENCRUSTED, FANTASTIC MIND!.. Jeremy Ferguson (Lead Engineer/Producer) records all the music. His day job is as a mechanic. He dreamed of being a frontman in a band ever since he saw Marcy Playground at a halloween party in his hometown, White Bridge, PA. Growing up a Quaker was tough but Ferguson was always willing to put on a show... Matt Martin (Lead Drummer) is the Author. They had music before he joined the group but it took on a life brand new with his vision, his whole take on non-melodius melodies, and the whole more is less than more of nothing approach. Don't even get me started on the whale sounds... Andy Willhite (Lead Guitar, Second rank Vocalist) was raised in the jungles of Peru by spider monkeys, went on to complete his G.E.D., and operates his own line of breakfast trucks ("Andy's Famous Pork Links & Waffle Iron Hour!") when he's not attending classes at G.I.T... Matt Rowland (Lead Piano and Organ) is blind, likens himself to Richard Pryor in See No Evil, Hear No Evil (with Gene Wilder), has always been bi-curious towards houses, and is very proud of his achievements in bowling for the blind, which involves neither bowling nor blind people... Mason Vickery founded Orphans without Seals to make sure all the children of the world could know of Seal's love. Seal, as you know, has sold many records. Mason also arranges the seating in the VW expanded Beetle-come-Bus-come-Tour Bus while the band is touring... Todd Kemp left the band tragically in 2002 to form his own breakdancing crew called Steppin for Jesus!. He dances for the Lord in tiny churches all across the Congo. ..old (like from the 60's):.. Headphones are your friends. Currenty working on records with Jeremy Ferguson at ..Battle Tapes... along with the members of Hands Down Eugene ,there are many wonderful key musicians who have contributed greatly to this recording, they are in no certain order, Casey Sanders, Mason Vickery, and Derek Wolf from Ole Mossy Face, Ryan Ervin, Todd Kemp, and Andy Pandy from The Carter Administration, Chad Bryan, and Brad Nichols from The Ants, Jeff Stolz , and John Cochran from Drakansasauna, Jay Phillips from Apollo Up, Tam Nitram, Carl Broemel from My Morning Jacket,Jarod Reynolds of Ben Folds and Ole Mossy Face Tony Read of Tony Read, Jeremy Ferguson from Mercator, Mandy Peitz, Mary leek, Betsy Kat, Andy Snyder of The Bubblegum Complex,Falls City Angels, Brandes Holcomb of Falls City Angels, and Colossal Head,and Claudia Spagnol.Also contributing on the new record,Joel J Dahl,,Todd Beene,matt rowland ,Anna Fitzgerald,and more to come....
