About Me


There are three members that comprise tHrOnE. One of the most unique aspects of the band, aside from their music, is that they are all related to each other and have been a band since 1995. Hailing from Connecticut, the band includes singer/songwriter and bassist Derek Trafton, his brother, drummer Casey Trafton and their cousin, guitarist/keyboards Justin Millar.
Justin is sponsored by both Hamer Guitars and Ovation Guitars , Derek is sponsored by Ovation Guitars , and Casey is sponsored by Sabian Cymbals , Vic Firth Drum Sticks , and Gretsch Drums .
After touring non-stop on five full length U.S. tours, they spent 2006-2007 in the studio writing/recording their sixth album entitled "Music at the Mansion" with Billy Martin (Good Charlotte) who co-produced a few songs along side Frank Marchand, who engineered and mixed the entire album.
Their shows are both an explosion of energy and of pure love for making music..."just like a bolt of lightning through everyone."
An endless thank you and love to all of the dedicated and hard working tHrOnE street team members and fans who continue to spread the word to everyone they can!
