"A.D.D. demonstrates a highly distinguished sound combining elements of heaviness and melody with rock-solid songwriting." - Chicagogigs.com
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Formed in April 2002, A.D.D. was assembled from the key components of various established Chicago bands. Dave Adams (Guitars/vox) and Ron Bailey (Drums/vox), teamed up with Margaret Young (Lead Vox), Randy Berg (Bass), and Jeremy Sparta (Guitar/Vox), to create a heavy, yet diversely melodic sound. Having penned a top 40 record with VIS@40 (#38 Album Network, Dec.2000), Adams and Bailey knew they we're a few key pieces away from being the band they had envisioned. With the addition of Young, Berg, and Sparta, all the pieces are in place for A.D.D. to be a vital force in the modern rock music world.
