Forming in Sudbury Ontario, 2000, Athend started playing shows under the name Blindspot for its first few years. Playing local punk shows and benefit concerts in Sudbury and near by towns, the band began making a name for themselves and drawing out larger crowds. Sharing the stage as locals with bands Moneen, Boys night out, and The salads amongst others, the band began working harder and taking things more seriously. During the summer of 2006, the original four members: Jeff Valentini(guitar/voc.), Matt Rocca (guitar/voc.), Neil Holatko (bass) and Nathan Battigelli (drums), went into the studio and recorded their 6 song demo. After the recording sessions, the band came to the realization that things weren’t being seen eye to eye and a change had to be made. Joelun Nighswander (bass) and Zack Lamothe (drums), both from previous bands, joined Jeff and Matt and complete the new line-up. The band has been, and will continue pushing their demo independently and working hard at writing new material. For all contact purposes, email the band at [email protected] Also! Join the mailing list and we'll keep you posted as to whats goin on. Thanks alot!
