Band History:
Formed in mid-2004, The Takeover UK came together to play the rock n roll they grew up loving. After spending their formative years banging out punk and hardcore, songwriters Mark Solomich and Nick Snyder hooked up with old pals Adam Shash and Josh Sickels to play the most fulfilling type of music. So far, it's been splendid. Wilkommen!
