Do Not Destroy

About Me

Bio:
What do you get when you put together four of the Lake Area’s most formidable musicians? Well, I am glad you asked. The answer is DO NOT DESTROY! It all started out when the guys in the band were tired of doing the same old songs you would expect to hear at any random bar on a Friday night. This inspired the band to do things a bit differently. No doubt they play songs that everyone loves to hear, but that’s where the familiarity comes to an end.
Their unique arrangements and obscurely covered tunes break the mold of what a cover band “should be.” With thirty years of combined experience in the business and a musical chemistry that not even Nixon could deny, you are guaranteed to have a good time when Do Not Destroy take the stage! Do Not Destroy is Marcus Sawyer on guitar & vocals, Kris Harper on guitar & vocals, Matthew Moss on Bass & vocals and Trey Newmiller on drums. They continue to tour the region melting faces and playing rock n’ roll.
