Duncan and Sheffield had been writing music together for years and had a great sound of their own that was seemingly made for Fred's vocal prowess. Amazed at the chemistry they had, they sought out John Waszczak, an insanely talented drummer Sheffield and Duncan had shared the stage with before. After interviewing several bassists, they happened upon Matt Johnson, a local Wiz Kid that had been tearing up the local scene. They had a great run, then Duncan decided to part ways with the band for personal reasons. At this point, there was a decision to make. Keep going as a four piece, or find someone to fit the slot? So, as the story unfolds, the new and only RUSTED SOUL WAS BORN. It was magic. Having found the perfect and only fit for the band, an unbelievable guitarist and vocalist by the name of Jonathan Pruitt that Sheffield had played with years before in the band known as Downside.
