   About Rock Paper Dynamite
Rock Paper Dynamite began playing music with eachother in the early part of 2007. Brothers Andrew and Joseph Janousek, and friends Scott Zrust and Trey Abel (all from rural NE) came together through fate. The boys played small shows to get themselves used to the crowd and become more comfortable with the music they have been performing. After endless amounts of shows, they decided it was time to record their songs. The boys turned to Curtis Grubb, of Grubb Inc. Production and Recording Studios, and from there history was made. The boys released their debut self-titled EP in mid 2007. The songs that made the EP were the best in the catalog at the time. The band then began playing shows and making themselves a name in the Omaha music scene. They began playing and writing new music for their shows and preparing to return to the studio with new songs to lay down. The Days of May sessions started in the early summer of 2008 and ran through until late August. The boys again returned to Curtis Grubb for their 2nd album. The album, "Days of May," was released to the public on December 11th, 2008. The maturity and musical talent within the band has grown tremendously since the release of the debut EP. They plan to play many more shows and begin writing new material in 2009 and are hopeful to get back in the studio by the end of the year.

"Omaha, Nebraska's Rock, Paper, Dynamite deliver a balanced, soulful performance on their second studio release, Days of May. Brothers Joe and Andrew Janousek maintain the guitar and vocal duties alongside Scott Zrust on drums and Trey Abel on bass. RPD's mixture of grunge, powerpop and rock formulate well on tracks like "I's Mine" and "Chew the Lemon." The musical elements never try to outdo one another; the guitar and vocals perfectly mesh with the rhythm section. The album is constantly moving, but never rushes. With a kinetic energy and a stellar sound, Rock, Paper, Dynamite is worth a listen." - Aaron Powers, southcoasttoday.com review
"Definitely one of the most solid rock bands to hit the scene that I've come across in awhile. Easy to work with, a joy in the studio, fresh sounds, fresh vibe and massive sacks... Much love." -Curtis Grubb Grasshopper Takeover
"Rock Paper Dynamite, a powerpop quartet with hard rock leanings that is emerging as one of the most consistent young bands in the Omaha music scene." -Will Simmons, Omaha City Weekly

"If you’ve never experienced the power of musical dynamite, check out Rock Paper Dynamite. Recently nominated for an OEAA in the 2010 Best Rock category.... plus an an ever-evolving rock-pop sound, satisfaction is all but guaranteed from this in-your-face rock quartet." -Derrick Schott, Omaha Reader

I will be joining 89-7 The River's Team for Omaha's 5th Annual 2009 Out of the Darkness Community Walk to benefit the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. I will be walking for those who could not be with us today. To help raise awareness that life is a gift and WE ALL have a purpose here. I would greatly appreciate any support that you give me for this worthwhile cause.

    The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention is at the forefront of research, education and prevention initiatives designed to reduce loss of life from suicide. With more than 33,000 lives lost each year in the U.S. and over one million worldwide, the importance of AFSP's mission has never been greater, nor their work more urgent.


    I hope you will consider supporting my participation in this event. Any contribution will help the work of AFSP, and all donations are 100% tax deductible.

Donating online is safe and easy! To make an online donation please visit my fundraising page.

or visit www.outofthedarkness.org and search and then click “lunchbox benny”

click the "Support This Participant" button on the page.

If you or someone you know needs help please call 1-800-273-TALK

Thank You,
