The Beggining of Frayed

Frayed started back in about 1998, when Justin and Steve were friends and decided to start a band. Steve sold his 80cc dirtbike for a drumset, and Justin got a guitar and amp from his uncle. Steves steps sisters boyfriend Jake he played the guitar and showed justin a few things on how to play the guitar. Stevens stepsister left him so they never really saw jake again. Justin had a cousin named josh who came into the band playing bass. Justin had another friend named Trevor, who played guitar, he started to play with the band as back-up, or rythm guitar. Frayed played a couple shows like this, but they still didnt have words. Then Josh did some things that the rest of the band didnt like (like not show up to practice). So they all decided to kick Josh out. We figured trevor could play the bass better than he could the guitar so he started to play bass. At this time, they had about 7 original songs but words for only 1 or 2. Thats when Steve suggested his friend Alec, who we had practiced with once or twice with him on bass and vocals, when josh never showed up. We decided to have alec sing. So finally the band was how it is today theres Justin, Alec, Steven, and Trevor. Alec and Steven stood up for a couple nights writing lyrics Trevor eventually changed some. More lyrics were wrote and more lyrics were changed. We practiced for a long time, and decided to make a little demo cd. It has 5 of our songs. We had our cd made if you want any contact the news letter or if you know us from school or even come to our shows ask to buy a cd we will have copies. FRAYED
