It's something we're all very familiar with. We do a lot of skating, snow boarding and surfing.

Los Angeles, Orange County, Ventura County, Phoenix, San Francisco and Las Vegas.

We will be getting paid to do what we love and we'll be able to spend more time writing, recording and playing.

It gives a lot more people the opportunity to be heard.

Hell yeah!

Mike (me, drums) Chris (my brother,vocals) and Sunny (guitar) all moved out to L.A. from Detroit where we grew up together. We had a band that played all over the place. We met Rich (bass) in L.A. while he was playing with his former band. When Chris and I decided to start Faceplant, we needed a bass player so we called Rich and he was in. We knew we wanted Sunny to play guitar and luckily his band had just broken up so he was available too. We recorded a 5 song c.d. and hit the clubs.
