About Me

This profile was edited with mywickedspace.com Editor
First alittle backround on the band. Jim grew up in the Australian outback, while Ryan hails from the Yukon (a very desolate area of Canada.) They both met at a routine check entering Canada, while they were both on vacation in the U.S. Coincidently, Ryan and James both were caught with crystal meth at the border check, and they were sentanced to Maximum Security Prision* for 12 years. Afterwords, the two created TreeSplitter, after talking about their musical infulences and stylings for 12 years in prision. Now, in 2006, TreeSplitter are better than ever. With so many experiences shared by the two, and their sheer talent, TreeSplitter is at the top of their game.Message from the band: "Zeus Rules!"*there was no sexual contact whilst in prison you sick perv. - -Today TreeSplitter has released 19 LP/EPs, over 10 hours of music and a incredible variety of completly insane ballads, rocks, sings and songs! ZEUS RULZZ!This is just the beginning. TreeSplitter.
