Bio

This is a band made by Tyler Johnson and Thomas Smith. Meeting Ty in grade 10, Thomas was pretty peculiar about starting a band. Little did Tom know that shortly after inviting his new friend over one day did he learn Ty played bass. What was just thought to be a friendship became a long- time bass and drum duo. They meet at Thomas's whenever they have time.

I'm finally getting professional drum microphones, Ty has new studio monitors, and I'm building a recording studio in the yard. Plus we have a whole new bag of tricks. I upgrade...
