Water Method

Water Method's roots trace back to a Kindergarten classroom in Massachusetts where future drummer Mark Migdal and future guitarist Brian O'Connor bonded over Top Gun. Flash forward twelve years to Mark's high school graduation where Brian and Mark jam for the first time with bass player and songwriter Jared Lipof (Mark's older brother John's friend). Water Method is born. Another three years and one instrumental album later Mark, Brian and Jared meet Jennifer Hall, opera singer and wanna be rocker, at a Mardi Gras party at John's house in LA (Mark lived there now too). Jen joins the band and they start recording their first album with vocals. One small glitch, Brian still lives in Massachusetts and Jared lives in Oakland. Jared moves to LA, but Brian is in school and can’t make the move. He flies in periodically for recording sessions, but Water Method wants to play live. Enter Joe Lorigo, guitarist, another friend of John who also happened to be in the short-lived cover band Colonel Mustard with Jen and Mark. In 2004 the finally fully-formed Water Method begins rocking LA live at such venues as The Mint, The Joint, Molly Malone’s and The Roxy. Every once and a while all five members get together for a super show. Most recently Saturday, September 23rd, 2006 for the release of their second full-length album Uncle Snackbox and his Phantasmagorical Ripsnorter.
