Band Members: thanks for all of the support throughout the years it has been a long strange trip
Tim Rockah
the veins was formed in 1995 when steven gabree and tim prescott met and decided to"JAM" together one night .
At this point tim had never thought about writing an original song but stephen was well on his way to writing his own materials.
the first song they decided to collaborate on was BLOODHEART a song written by steven .He then suggested to tim to write some lyrics to go to this musical composition and ALAS the VEINS were born
After a few overdubs of these early songs they said lets put a band together
In comes Curtis Chennette and Jim Lucas and then not long after that MarkCabral .
Curtis was the member who came up with the name THE VEINS
After many months of practice we booked our first gig at Everydays in Colonie NY .Now those of you who know this band or have seen them know that we have gone through quite an extensive lineup of players throughout the years .
