Originally hailing from Rhode Island, and currently splitting their time between Boston, MA and Portland, ME, Ken Gardiner and Travis Searle have been writing, recording, and performing together for over a decade. A live performance on the popular "Community Auditions: Star of the Day” TV program in April 2008 sparked the duo's latest trip to the studio, culminating in the August 2008 release of their self-titled EP. The 7-song collection highlights some of their most varied and formidable song writing to date. Combining Searle's warm, distinctive vocals with Gardiner's melodic guitar riffs and solid, grooved bass lines, Spyside achieves an edgy, pop-oriented sound.
