In June of 2003, out of the depths of the Nevada desert came 5 separate musicians from all different walks of life. Each of these people, unique in their own ways, all had one thing in common, their desire to make music.
Armed with this passion and an idea to create aggressive original music with a strong lyrical message, Reason One was born.
After 4 months of a strict practice schedule creating the music that epitomized their ideas, Reason One played their first show. An annual festival in Northern CA, With an attendance in upwards of 500 people, with Reason One playing in front of largest crowd. After meeting many new fans, it was very apparent that Reason One had arrived.
