When the noise subsides...we make noise

About Me

We have been a band to greater or lesser degrees since the mid 90's. Jeff started the band Ivory Library in the mid 80's and I (pat) joined in '95 when the other guitarist quit. We played Madison a lot, Minneapolis, and the other usual midwest spots. Ivory disbanded in '97 but Jeff and I continued making music that went into a collective nameless void which eventually became... Squarewave. We are: Patrick Connaughty, Jeff Jagielo, and Brandon Smith.
