The Package

FIVE MEMBERS, ONE PACKAGE

About Me

We are 5 guys from AZ. However, we started out as an acoustic duo. Adam and Mike would write and practice songs composed mostly of Adam's lyrics and when there was enough material ready it was presented to drummer, Chase. Garrett, a friend/musician (singer of local thrash/punk band The Prosthetics) was always around and agreed to play the bass. We practiced for a number of weeks when another friend/musician came around. His name is Igza and he plays the keyboard. After a few weeks and a few cancelled shows due to miscommunications, Chase left the band. Soon after, Garrett left due to being too tied up with The Prosthetics. Both left under friendly circumstances. Adam, Mike, and Igza continued to write and practice. Adam and Mike played drums temporarily to not slow down the writing process. And after a few failed attempts to find a bassist, friend Beau Rose was contacted. Beau immediately took to the band's style. Soon after drummer Mike Mays was recruited and the wheels are once again, in motibr / I got this hot layout at LayoutLemon.com on.
