Biography

This Los Angeles, California, USA-based alternative rock band treads the same middle ground as Creed, Matchbox 20 and Pearl Jam. Songwriter Jason Wade (b. 5 July 1980, California, USA; vocals/guitar) and Sergio Andrade (b. 17 October 1977, Guatemala City, Guatemala; bass) first forged a musical partnership in the mid-90s. Drummer Rick Woolstenhulme (b. Gilbert, Arizona, USA) and occasional guitarist Stuart Mathis helped establish the band as a leading attraction on the Los Angeles club scene, although it was not until the late 90s that their demo tape finally came to the attention of the newly formed DreamWorks label. Their debut No Name Face included the chart hits "Hanging By A Moment" and "Everything", two tracks which encapsulated the band's trademark brand of angsty, melodic rock. Equally balanced was the follow-up Stanley Climbfall in 2002.
