About Me

Brad Lindsay has enjoyed holding the guitar position for The Jupiter Affect led by Michael Quercio of The Three O'Clock and also had the pleasure of working live and/or on record with artists such as RXBandits, Tony Lambardo of The Descendants, Robert Deeble, Create(!), Banner Day and others. Brad formed his trio, Lindsay, in January 2006 to perform live in support of his recently completed album "Moment in the Sun". Lindsay (the band) recorded a five song EP representing the group's live sound. Brad pursued the release of "Moment in the Sun" from all of three record distributing organizations and, despite their notable encouragement and a reasonable "other fish in the sea" argument, he abandoned the endeavor in despair. "Grasping at Straws", which can be heard on this site, was featured on an unsigned band compilation released by the very credible Velvet Blue Records. By years end Brad had lost confidence in himself as a solo artist personality. As luck would have it, at this time Erik Trickett, a long time associate of Brad and fellow former Jupiter Affect member, was looking to form a group of his own and convinced Brad to join. Brad, having quit his own band without really telling any of the members, offered that the band Lindsay simply back Erik up to forgo the trials of putting new groups together. That resulting outfit, lamentably named the Victorians, still plays today and has steadily offered Brad a sense of easy satisfaction.
