We are TRIGGER finger, a fairly new grunge fusion (sometimes grunge/rock, sometimes grunge/metal) band. We are located in the Cincinnati, Ohio area.
Our members are:
- Joe (Drums - Drummer for 3 years)
- Eric Phillips (Vocals)
- Josh Ruberg
- Poindexter (Bass - 8 Year Drummer, 2 Year Bass)
- Kevin (Guitar - 4 year guitarist)
We focus primarily on originals, but we're currently working on some new covers.
Our current covers include Franz Ferdinand, The Darkness, Coheed and Cambria, Weezer, and more.
Our website is www.triggerfingerrock.cjb.net . Our band email account is triggerfingermusic@hotmail.com .Band/artist history
We formed in August of 2003. Poindexter was originally the drums, with Kevin and another guitarist as the guitars. However, when the other guitarist didn't show for practices, Kevin and Poindexter kicked him out. With the search for a bassist still on, Poindexter made the switch to bass and the band picked up Joe as the drummer. The band soon made their website and began working on original material. In early February 2004, Poindexter fell ill. After a surgery and 3 months of rehab, the band was back. They did have a few select doctor approved practices (short and watched over). The band also reached over 1000 hits on their homepage and recieved wind of a possible recording time. With the recording time still up in the air, the band acquired Eric Phillips, a vocalist, and Josh Ruberg, a good guitarist.
TRIGGER finger is currently working on an album to be named "The Chronicles of an Empty Shell".Have you performed in front of an audience?Yes. And hopefully we will be booking a tour around Cincinnati and the tri-state area.
