Thank you for visiting the Pawn page. Our goal is to create high quality music that captivates not only your ears but also your mind. We believe music should not only sound good, but explain a theory and/or tell an interesting story in the process. Our main achievment thus far is the creation of 7 sins from truth, a musical trilogy. This is a story of death and the travels that proceed it, we are very fond of it and hope you will be too.
Pawn is:
Rauly Gonzalez (Singer/Song Writer)
David Valdez (Bass)
Gabe (Guitar)
And Richie Valdez (Drums/Percussion)
Band Bio:
When Pawn started about 2 years ago it was not a band at all, just 4 friends getting together to play some less than stunning cover songs. The band really began to take shape about a year later when Rauly and David were both attending COS college. In their spare time they would write songs at David's house until they finally made a short crude recording of a song titled "Our King" This recording boosted the morale of the rest and band and lead them to a change of direction with the band.
Emphasizing the fact that we are all just powerless beings controlled by our surroundings the band decided to call themselves Pawn. The name is not to imply weakness however, just the reality that we are only as powerful as we allow ourselves to be. A Pawn CAN defeat a king with the right mindset.
The band took on another change with the addition of Gabe Chavez on guitar. Gabe brought a modern new age tone to the existing set up and created the Pawn you hear today. Pawn recorded their Demo in 2007 which ironically contains a revamped version of Pawn's original song "Our King"
Pawn now looks to the future, hoping to entertain the rock fans of the valley like so many central valley rock artists before them.

Playing "Clonicide" at borders. DISREGARD THE FUCKIN BLENDER AT THE END!!
I loathe, my own Reflection
So keep, the mirror far away
And if, I ever see myself again
I, won't even hesitate....
[To kill myself,
For everyone to see
Walk away,
And somehow still believe
That I am better,
Better than my own reflection
Here's my answer,
I pray you never know the Question....]
My face, is all around me
Disguised, by exterior design
And if, I ever see myself again
I, will definetely try..
[To kill myself,
For everyone to see
Walk away,
And somehow still believe
That I am better,
Better than my own reflection
Here's my answer,
I pray you never know the Question....]
{The evil in me
Is the evil I seek
Destroy all the strong
While I remain weak
The evil in you
is inside me too
So I'll kill you first
Before they know the truth
That I loathe, my own Reflection
So keep, the mirror far away
[I'll kill myself,
For everyone to see
Walk away,
And somehow still believe
That I am better,
Better than my own reflection
