As lead guitarist Mike Buzzetti put it: "You shouldn't be in a wimpy band and call yourself Machine". Make no mistake: Machine rocks, as if evidenced by their high-octane song "Car Chase". Fans of power chords will appreciate the guitar-driven music. Meanwhile, singer Rolf Gehrung fills the songs with
earnest rock and roll emotion, Trent Lochridge provides a thunderous beat, and solid engineering adds the right effects without overproducing. They
even have a political song, "Killing Babies." Yes front man Jon Anderson had high praise for the Templeton band at the Winery Music Awards, saying
they were a song away from stardom. To hear samples of this CD, visit sanluisobispo.com.

Bio
Once upon a time...
Rolf met Buzz while playing in a crappy cover band. Realizing the magnitude of crappiness, they decided to break away and write songs simply to write and eventually record songs. The days passed and eventually, the time came to record...the search for a drummer began (que ticking clock). 2 drummers came an went. Then when all hope was lost, enter Trent Machine who answered an add Buzz placed for a studio engineer apprentice...it just so happened he played drums. The moral of the story; Don't look for what you need.
