2003 / 2004 - Inviting The Crash is born from members of Liquid Number Nine, Phillo Betto, and Velkro.
November 2004 The guys from Inviting the Crash hop on a plane from Detroit to LA to play a small acoustic show at Genghis Cohen in Hollywood. Demos are passed out and one finds its way into the hands of super-producer Scott Humphrey (Rob Zombie, Tommy Lee, Motley Crue). Having liked what he heard, Humphrey signs on to produce Inviting The Crashs debut ep.
July 2005 Recording begins in Humphreys Hollywood Hills studio, The Chop Shop, and the band sets out to create "Twelve Days In Repair".
The chance meeting between Inviting the Crash and Scott Humphrey is not far removed from the band's approach to writing songs and living life. Born out of their love and passion for music, ITC strives to bring real artistry and musicianship back to the forefront of an industry burdened with manufactured "artists." Whether it's the spastic rock assault of "Save the Best for Last," or the moody, jazz/blues-tinged vibe of "Too Many Times," Inviting the Crash is meant to challenge its listeners. True artistry is all about seizing moments in time and molding them into something special and meaningful, regardless of boundaries or expectations. Each day bring new colors and shapes, and these are the things that Inviting the Crash tries to capture every time they write a song.
Open your mind, let you guard down, have a listen, and let's have some fun while we're here. This is Inviting the Crash
