Hey there, we are The Eastern View, we are a four piece pop-punk/emo band srtaight out of Stafford, Virginia.Band/artist history
Forming in December of 2002, The Eastern View hail from Stafford County, Virginia. It all started in the summer of 2002 when drummer Ricky Schmidt moved to Stafford. He just so happened to live right down the street from old childhood friend, Scott Jones. Soon after meeting and practicing together, they landed a couple of covers and knew they had something going for them. After a few weeks, they decided to bring bassist/singer Ryan Lesto into the mix and later guitarist Richie Manion. After months and months of practice, The Eastern View have just started playing shows and are creating quite a stir in the Stafford and Fredericksburg area.Have you performed in front of an audience?Oh of course, we love playing shows and hopefully we will have a bunch of shows coming up soon.
