WHO THE HECK ARE THESE GUYS? Boy, you'd be surprised how often we don't hear that question asked, but just incase you were wondering . . .
THE SOFTER SIDE formed in October 2000, but has been playing music together "unofficially" since the late 90's. The band consists of Brian Crick (lead vocals, guitar), Scott Sugarman (guitar, vocals), Tim Grisnik (drums, vocals - also of Inspection 12) and Hampton Crimm (vocals, bass).
The band describes their music as "stuff you listen to while either doing stuff or things". I know that isn't much of description, but with influences all over the board (metal, punk, rock, folk, etc.), they don't want to label themselves to certain genre.
So with two releases already under their belts and legions of die-hard fans, the future looks bright for these young fellows . . . so be on the look out for a SOFTER SIDE INVASION in your town real soon!
