About Me

Beyond expectations, we've made music that reflects the dirty passion we have for music. Our ethos is simple: if it sounds good, lay it down.... (& If it's crap, work it into an eloquent crap sculpture.)
We believe in music as a force to build and destroy.
We are the conduit through which the ether flows.
Believe it.
We were hatched in 1999. Our wings were wet and our eyes had yet to open, but steadily the cosmos nurtured us into a beast of majestic ambivalence.
The original line-up was:

Seth Allison: Guitars and Horns
Jeff Gagnon: Bass Guitars
Zack Menard: Guitar
Jason "Sketcher" Halfacre: Drums
Josh "Bobo" Bowling: Drums and vocals.
Sketcher "Sketchy", "Sketch", "Duke", "Filbert", Halfacre left the band to pursue Californian engagements, public drug use, and culinary expertise.
Zack left to pursue life, the universe, and coffee/beer fueled existentialism. Good luck.
In 2001, longtime friend of the band Josh Bowling took over steady drum duties, thumping the nasties from the eighth plane of satyr.
Two years later Azwan Badruzaman assumed lead guitar status, shredding any skeptectations with a pine cone of explosive wailing succubi.
The current lineup has been converting cynics and confusing bar patrons since 2003.
Visit us in the real world sometime.
XOXO,
-Conduit
