Hit By A Car is not just three musicians thrown together with brilliant results. It is a potent mixture of three long paths. Justin McBroom (guitar, vocals) met N8 Lynas (drums, vocals) when they were in High School and have been playing together since as first Whisker Biskit and then since 1995 as Hit By A Car. Since 1995 both have branched out and played with other bands. Justin has played with The Dickins, Anti-Social Movement, The Cruel and Unusual and as a solo artist. N8 has played with national touring act, Anti-Man, Fuck Work, Sbitch, Anti-Social Movement, and the always touring The Oi!strs, where he met bassist and vocalist Brian Eckstein. After going through three bassists from 1995 to 2001, Hit By A Car was ready for a permanent musician to take the bass spot over. After playing in Austin for fourteen years in such bands as The Oi!strs, Plowman and Smashmouth, Brian stepped in late in 2001 and since then, Hit By A Car has gone from playing Tuesdays at nine o’clock to regularly headlining Fridays and touring regionally. Hit By A Car has released four CD’s prior to “Don’t Poop In My Mouth and Tell Me It’s Raining” which is in stores now.
The current line-up includes: N8 Lynas on drums and vocals, Justin McBroom on guitar and vocals, and Brian Eckstein on bass and vocals.
