At the age of 10 ,and 11 my little brother(adam),and I Started making punk rock noise in our mothers basement. Soon after Big Brother Brandon joined and taught us all about OP IVY , and The Specials.
By ages 14,15 ,and 18 Tim Armstrong was producing and releasing "The Gadjits" on his Hellcat/Epitaph label.
After style changes we were dropped ,and passed around from Indie to Indie until we landed a deal with RCA. Again the deal went south and instead of pushing on we said "fuck it!, we are in our 20's now, and we dont want to get old being in this group"
Now we are "Architects".We picked up right where "The Gadjits" left off, making ass kicking noise and taking no survivors @ our live shows.
We have made many wonderful friend along the way ,and has been an honor to work w/ everyone we've met.
Check out our new band "Architects" We have a record out called "keys to the building".We live in KCMO.
Cheers- Zachary Architect/Bad Gadjit Phillips
