About Me

LEAST AMONG US - Based out of Moreno Valley, CA Initially formed as a three piece band 4 years ago with Mark Synnott, Jonathan Synnott, and Mike Palmer, the long time friends have grown in numbers and in spirit. Bringing on Seth Johansson for vocals and Mark Harper to play 2nd guitar, the God fearing 5-some spreads their message of faith and love one performance at a time. Over the past few years, LEAST AMONG US has enjoyed writing, recording, and performing at venues throughout Southern California, such as The Victoria Theater in Santa Barbara, The Whiskey a Go-Go in Hollywood, and smaller venues throughout The Inland Empire. Though they are not without their own trials and tribulations, the band continues to stand firm in their faith in God and attribute any success to Him. The band's newest E.P., recorded in May 2005, mixes melody with ferocity on tracks like "Stigmata" and "This Empty Life". The third track, titled "Follow You", graciously evokes the band's central message of maintaining the virtues of faithfulness and humbleness in a fallen world. Through the use of rich lyrical imagery, LEAST AMONG US attempts to meet their listeners at the essential crossroads of defining who we are as a people and what we will do with the life that has been given to us.
