YIA

Y.I.A. was founded by childhood friends Donny and Pat who had been writing music together since they were kids. In 2002 they met up with Andy, started writing some material while searching for a drummer, and Y.I.A. was born. Jen played with us for two years before leaving to persue other interests. Thats when new drummer, John, came along and the band started to move in a new direction. In late 2006 Pat decided to take a break from the band to pursue other intersts but before doing so he asked Donny's brother Greg if he would be interested in taking over bass duties. Greg jumped right on the idea and the other members agreed that he was a good choice for the band. Pat rejoined the band in late 2008. Over the last 7 years we have been playing our brand of loud, angry, and drunkin, punk rock. We have helped build a thriving all ages scene in our hometown of Bremerton Washington and have travled all over the state playing gigs. Who knows what the future holds for us. Probably more drunken debauchery and discontent towards the current sate of the world. Come check us out at the next show. This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
