Coming from diverse Atlanta, Fold is a hardcore band which has injested their city's culture and energy. Formed in 1996, the band has taken their time in devoloping a unique flavor by inhilating stages with their loose, urban-styled assault. Comprised of two brothers, J. (guitar flow) and Dru Longino (throat); together with very close friends, Gianni C. (beats) and Colemite (bass), Fold has always been a family unit. With trademark live energy setting them apart from many other bands, Fold is hoping to make their mark by spreading their diversities to everyone. "We totally and genuinely feel our music from the depths of our souls when writing and performing," says J. of playing for Fold. "Music to us is a necessary form of therapy, and we play every show and practice as if it were our last..."
