The Televised

The band was fomed in late 2005 with members of several established regional bands. They began recording/playing shows shortly thereafter.

Singer/songwriter Dustin Storm formed the band with Carlos D from the punk/ska band The Defectors and recruited drummer Tony Deleon from south Texas. They immediately began work on an a 19-song debut album that was released independently and sold around 2,000 copies. It was South of Mainstream's album of the Month in Oct 2006 gaining strong reviews for it's indie/pop sensibility and lyrically driven songs.

The band continued writing and touring through early 2008 when they added lead guitarist Jeremiah Haydock from the Tulsa-based band The Cunning. They began writing for a follow-up album and released the 5 song EP, "Storytelling for the Broken-Hearted" The single, 'A Little Sunlight' received a strong amount of radio play on area radio stations.

Later in the year the band recruited Hip/Hop multi-instrumentalist Devo from Society Society who was known for his ability to fuse several genres of music into his set.

To round out the group the band added another local singer/songwriter Valerie Stone to play piano/guitar.

Almost immediately the band started gaining strong recognition for it's live shows and high-energy performances. Known for their hard work ethic and devoted street team they have built a strong following and opened up for several national touring acts including, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Flobots, Matisyahu, Ian Moore, The Wailers, Afroman, Elmwood, and is set to open for Manchester Orchestra.

The band is currently working on it's first album with the new full-lineup at Brady Street Records with Producer Tom Gittons from the England-based band The Culprit.
