Bio

The band began it's life in the fall of 2005 when singer-songwriter Andy Behlen met up with two outstanding musicians from his very small hometown of Schulenburg, TX. Joey Gilliam had just moved there from Houston where he played bass in the progressive-rock band Dieselwig. Travis Jasek had been playing drums almost all his life and credits Chris Layton as his inspiration to begin drumming.

The music they began to create together touched on all these backgrounds. The melodic bass lines produced by Joey seem to be the glue that holds everything together. "Since Joey is so creative and flowing on bass, it allows me to approach the guitar from a little different perspective," remarks Behlen, "They(Joey and Travis) don't really even need me. They sound awesome just by themselves. What I provide musically can really be just described as texture."

Lyrically, the songs are tales of emotionally disturbed characters from the fringe of society("Man On The Moon", "Devil Child"), philosophical questions("Who Am I", "Turn It Up"), and strange stream-of-consciousness ramblings("Untitled #2").

Andy sums it all up the best my saying, "I just want people to hear my story. I don't have an agenda, I don't have a huge ego, I just want people to hear my story, thats all."
