BIOGRAPHY
The story of how they got together, according to Johnny, is as follows, in his own words: "Well it started in a bar. I think it was The Dirty Clam. I brought Keith and we met Paul and Ritchie. It took a long time for our conversation to get to music, and when it did, Paul was passed out, and Keith was hitting on some blond chick. Then, by the time it got to a band, me and Ritchie were MASSIVELY DRUNK, and Keith and Paul were passed out. The only thing I remember word-for-word is my last comment:'Yeeeeeeah, maaan! Thaaaaat would be-hic-soooooooo cooooooooooooool'. And then I fainted. The next day me and Ritchie remembered the idea and woke up Paul and Keith. Paul seemed enthusiastic, but Keith was all like 'Yeah, whatever, just let me go back to bed!'. That afternoon, we practiced. In the span of about a month, we were good. Damn good! So, I decided to secretly record our band and audition us to Cookies and Biscuits.
All of us knew except Keith, as he already expressed disinterest in getting signed to a label. I remember him saying something like 'Dude, we can't get signed to a label. We're good, but compared to the kinds of groups they got up there, we suck!' I actually went up there, and some of 'the kinds of groups' actually liked us. They wanted us to be signed, but at that moment I realized something: I was gonna have to tell Keith. When I told and he figured out I wasn't joking, he began to, no joke, strangle me! He did this for a good minute until he realized 'Hey! They like us!'. So then we did a live audition, and the rest is friggin' history!
In 2013, after rereleasing their 'debut,' "Reborn," on POM Records, they went into seclusion for months until finally releasing a new music video for a brand new song called "The New Rock and Roll" confirming that the boys were at work on another album.
