The founder of this mid-life crisis band: Nick heard Paramore during his commute and formed The Losing Formula instead of…ya know… just turning up the volume like a normal person.

Who needs to memorize lyrics when you’ve got a voice this guy. A real team player minus loading in, upgrading gear, or reading the group chat.

Don’t let the Les Paul fool you, this guy can actually play guitar. College educated audio engineer and the only one who knows how to work our equipment, all hail Joby.

The Man, The Myth, The Problem Child. What is a emo band without their talented rebel accountant guitar player. Sexy.
