  • Bio

    .... .... ..03/08/09.... .... .... Here is the brief history:.... In 2005 Nick and Tim started playing/writing songs late at night out of boredom, Tim Played a clean electric guitar, and nick played drums. .... They played their first show 04 Jan 2006 @ 08:00 PM - The House of Bayberry in Wellfleet , MA 02667 with The Harbor Lights, and The Brrr. About 10 Cape Cod people were there, and possibly 10 kids from PA cooking most likely vegan food in the kitchen. While Tim was playing guitar, and singing for the first time in front of anyone ever a girl laughed over him at something most likely involving some sort of ironic indie rock humor. Tim immediately was confused and thought she was laughing at him. Basically stopped in his tracks, and never tried singing for Hawh? again. .... Nick and Tim then had Patrick T. over from the fleece. He brought some things to put special FX on his vox. Not sure even what happened. It probably... sounded like a early-sonic youth/theoretical girls mixed with a drunken wilco practice. Utter chaos. .... Patrick bounced, and Steffen stepped in and played Bass. He seemed to like it, and stuck around for a while. Recorded first s/t demo. Tim wrote lyrics and sang over the songs the night it was mixed at the Caped Cod (Chatham, MA RIP). Woah, these guys really needed a singer. Played first show with Steffen on 27 Apr 2006 @ 06:00 PM @ The Harwich Community Center in Harwich, MA 02645 with Coldwater Flats, Avery D., Tape Eaters, Vima Tresna. .... Woah Eileen, Come try and sing for our bitchin' rock band, yah! Where have you been all of our lives? We have this song we want to call the Lion song and... we really think you should sing on it! She went to town on it. An instant friend hit. Every kid in Chatham knew the words. Holy shit. We played our first show with our new singer Eileen on 06 May 2006 @ 08:00 PM @ The Chatham Recreation Center Chatham, MA 02633 @ The very first CHATHAM FEST! with The Armory Show, The Western Syndrome, Cut Down The Tall Trees, Avery Dewing among others. Wow, the kids really rocked out here! .... We played a bunch of shows with this new line up. Put out a second EP titled, "Goodnight Charlie". Played the amazing Emergenza Fest, placed... and quit before our 2nd slot (What a stupid fest). Got filmed playing live for a music Documentary's extra section (If You Want We Can) at a show we played in Danvers, MA. Started to meet a lot of friends a long the way. Classic Face, Shore Leave, The Young Leaves, Come On, Feet, OMG Elephant, Fight The Ocean, The Living Sea, amongst others (If we missed you, we still love you). .... Oh shit... Steffen has another band he needs to care more about! Ok... Fine... Steffen plays un-official last show at Monica's urban hippie house of kegs... Weird... fun show. Tim played guitar solos on someones couch. We wish there was pictures. Thanks Steffen, peace! Hey... CHET.. WOAH! Your going to be home on Cape for a while. You should play bass for us until our friend Alex Eisenberg who wants the part for good gets back from Russia. Really Chet? So cool of you! Great. Chet played Bass for us for a few shows... Not to mention recorded the bass parts for our 2nd EP titled "Are you wet? or are you bleeding?" .... Alex comes back from Russia and adds a incredible dynamic to the band. Woah, stuff is sounding good. Played a bunch of shows, including our probably most notable one on 19 Jul 2007, 09:00 PM @ The Middle East (Upstairs) Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 with Brooklyns own super hip Matt and Kim, and Magic People. SOLD OUT! What a blast! We played MITs Pipeline, had a short live video filmed of us doing so... pretty neat. .... Things were getting really heavy, we were writing for a full length at this point. The new music was getting awesome, really focused etc. but all good things must come to an end. Eileen, and the band decided it was time for the band to go one way, and Eileen needed to go another. Life, school, work, and relations were a calling and Eileen needed to answer on the other end. We played our last show with Eileen at WTF Fest! in Chatham, MA. RIP Lion song. Every kid in Chatham cried. All 6 of them. Woah, we don't have a singer, and a whole bunch of material. We need to find a singer. Holy shit. We can't find a singer anywhere? Well... Let's keep writing and looking. Ahhh never mind. Let's just throw this all away. Well that's where it all left off, and no one ever looked back. Yay! .... and the rest was history... .... Tim now does Lettuce Loose, and World Weary and Wise .... Alex and Nick are trying to figure out a new project. They are also probably recording some surf heavy songs. Check out their last recording project on myspace, Millions Of Civilians. .... Eileen... not sure if your up to anything musical at this time... but I'm sure she would love to hear from you if you need any vocals laid down for anything, etc. .... ALSO: Our friend Amanda from Hot Box, has a new distro (http://www.myspace.com/fortyfourdistro), and "ARE YOU WET OR ARE YOU BLEEDING" (our last, no really LAST EP) is available for FREE- What a amazing deal!? Only pay shipping costs ($2)! at 44 Distro. Quick! I think she only has 4. Those may be the last 4 ever! Go Check it out. Other great bands too! Hopefully, our new bands stuff will go through 44 too! Love- .... http://fortyfourdistro. bigcartel. com/ .... Go away!
