The origin of EYE TO I is an interesting story. When the cover band they were part of split up, Chris (drums) and Bobby (guitar) decided to keep jamming, writing and searching for members to form a new band. Bobby and his friend Jason (bass) worked at the same music store. Bobby asked him to come out and jam. Jason brought a unique style both musically and visually to the table, and was instantly brought into the fold. Still needing a vocalist, mutual friends introduced the guys to Monte, whose lyrical approach to the music was a perfect match. Within a short period of time, five songs were finished and were rehearsed intensely. A friend of Monte's, Shaun (Rhythm Guitar) came to a practice and liked what he heard. Shaun was added to the band and has made an unmistakable mark on the music.EYE TO I was born!!Just 3 months after forming, EYE TO I was asked to be the opener for national recording artists Revelation Theory. With only 5 songs and a drum solo, EYE TO I rocked the club. The show was a major success and an eye opener for the guys in the band.
