A four-piece band based in British Columbia, Canada, it's difficult to label us as any one genre. From the crunchy, near nu-metal headbanging anthem My Sin to the poppy Just Leave, whatever your taste, we should be able to fulfill your needs.

Why this name?
Our names are Jamie, Andrew, Daniel, and Aaron. You make the connection. That's not really what it stands for, though, it's just kind of a cool name.
Do you play live?
Yeah, we had a gig at a youth group recently to about 150 people and it was incredible. A special moment, I suppose you could call it, was when we played The Four Horsemen by Metallica, screwed it up horribly, but then made the crowd laugh by saying how disgusted we were with it.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
For those trying to get off the ground, it's awesome. For those already off the ground and signed with a label, it's not so good.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Definitely.
Band History:
Originally a two-piece band of now-drummer Aaron Ricard and bassist Jamie Bell, Andrew "Japandrew" Rasmus moved into town and immediately a band was born. Since then, we've recruited Aaron Ricard's brother, Daniel Ricard, to be vocalist.
