About Me

Formed in 2002 by Mitchell Foy following the disolution of Pineal Ventana and a brief stint as Terminal I.F. Several line-up changes eventually included Doug Hughes (also of Broken Symmetry) among others. By 2003 the group was reduced to the Foy/Hughes duo. Tim Shea (from Boston's Cloud Furnace) joined in Oct '06 on bass, rounding out the trio. Additional help with drums has recently arrived via Sean Moore (3D5Spd, Lid Emba). Contributing to recent live shows have been guests Travis Kotler (Pineal Ventana) and Melvin Ocassio (Terminal I.F.).Foy co-founded and helmed Pineal Ventana through most of the 90's, and recordings of the band by Hughes' mobile Solar Wind studio can be found on several CDs. Prior to that Foy fronted King-Kill/33.The debut Tenth To The Moon CD is set for release in early 2008.
