ammatusk came together as a band a few years after guitarist jason phillips and bassist scott smith met in 1997. for two years they talked about forming a band, but didn't take much action to get it done. then in 1999, scott met drummer spike ruland. as it turned out, spike was looking to get back into music after a self-imposed hiatus of a few years. the three began working on developing songs that scott had previous written, as well as writing as a trio. although the studio experience worked out well as a trio, the guys realized the potential the music would have with the addition of a second guitarist. jason asked his friend dave bishop to join the band in 2003. the band completed the recording of the long-promised, oft-delayed debut cd, "welcome to the learning curve" in the fall of 2004.
the cd is available through our website ( ammatusk.com ) or through amazon.com , cdbaby.com , iTunes, and including mySpace!.
2007 has the band working on the follow-up to "learning curve," again writing in jason's studio in big bend, wisconsin. watch for sound clips to be posted on the band's website. we have about 12 great song ideas. of course, we're not sure what will end up on the next cd, but it's a start!
Keep checking back, as we'll be posting clips of potential songs from the next CD here soon!
