A Noted Author

About Me

::::original rock and roll from the mountain state:::
Together in one form or another for over fifteen years, A Noted Author takes all the best from expereinces of the past and blends them with all the best of new ideas, fresh skills, and life experiences. A Noted Author's roots lie in the West Virginia band What's Left. What's Left began in the early 90's with Bob Campion and others. Throughout the 90's and into the 2000's, Ryan McInturff, Dylan McInturff, and Mark Gess had all been on board as members of the alt-jam-party band. What's Left continued thru early 2002. After a brief hiatus, Bob, Dylan and Ryan reunited to embark on new sonic adventures. 2005 saw Ryan returning to North Carolina. Mark then rejoined Bob and Dylan, and the three friends continue the musical journey...
::"each of the three members easily filled their third of the pie with competence and mastery. guitarist/vocalist campion's vocals were strong and capable, able to scream when required, able to croon when needed; and the rhythm section....gives this trio a really tight, full and powerful sound, at the same time, stressing the importance of dynamics and creativity." - susanna robinson, graffiti::
::"a noted author, a band that has been around many years in many different incarnations, seamlessly blends a vast range of influences with strong songwriting and stronger musicianship. if more so called 'rock' bands did music like this, we'd all be better off. fans of new school cave in as well as bands like pearl jam, sloan and dismemberment plan will DEFINITELY dig this band." - dr. fever, antimusic.com::
