Drowned Youth was formed back in 1998 by Bernie and Chaz, who've been friends since high school. As a duo, we played around Hartford-Newington-New Britain area, with local acts, who like us simply just wanted to play music somewhere besides the garage.
Due to the loss of our last bass player and personal dealings, we haven't been playing out nor recording these past couple years. Earlier this year we found out my boy Anjre had picked up a bass, so we kind of recruited him. We're glad to be back with new demos and material that'll turn in to a great record and our new true bass player "Suicide"("It's about time this dude picked up a bass!!!")
The first album "Cookie was recorded in 99'-00' which started getting us gigs at the old Equator in Manchester, Sully's, YMCA events and a TV appearance on CPTV in 2001 which was replayed numerous times. "Cookie" was followed up with "Evolution E.P." in 2002. In 2001 we put together a local Hallows Eve festival known as Death Fest which had a few good runs and big turnouts. There is talk about  planning another Death Fest for this year, but we'll see what happens.
