The Bass Player

Hey all, this be Prat, bass notes for Suspended. I play on a 4-string Rogue Bass(what is with the 5th string?) and a Gallien Krueger set up. Playing music with Suspended is the one true thing in my life that I get pleasure out of. Nothing else is as reliable as the music I play. My goal with Suspended is to take bassing to a whole new level. Not only can people relate to the lyrics of a song but they feel it in music too. Other than music I just enjoy hanging out with friends. This goes out to my sister Jen(thanks for your love and support) check out Reagan National Crash Diet. Plus all the people at HHS. Man you all are strange.

The Lead Singer

Hey everyone, I'm singer/songwriter for Suspended. First off I'd like to say thanks to all of our great fans, who are very supportive. They help my dreams with the band come true.
Singing for Suspended has really helped me realize that it's not only the tune and rythym of a song, but the lyrics that make it as well. So most of the songs I write are about things that have happened to me, or situations people find themselves in everyday. My goal for the music I write is to have the lyrics draw the people to the music, in ways which they can relate to everyday.
As far as vocals go, I'd say I've came a far ways, but then I'd also say I have a whole lot farther to go. I take vocal coaching sessions 2 to 3 times a month, which is good, because before I took vocal coaching, it was really hard to keep my voice in shape for concerts. I'd really like to thank my vocal coach, who has really helped bring out the lyrics, through the music I sing in a more effective way. Singing in a band,(especially rock music), takes a lot of time and commitment, pushing yourself everyday to sing vocal excercise patterns, and at least a half hour of singing everyday, on top of working on vocal techniques. My main influences for singing come from Scott Stapp and James Hetfield, although I try to produce my own vocals.
Apart from the band, I really like sports, especially weightlifting. I work about 20 hours a week at an orchard, that's we're I come up with lot of my song ideas, while doing a lot of mundane shit.
Well that's all for now, and to all of our great fans, keep rocking, you are the best.

The Lead Guitarist

Hey I'm Micah, Lead Guitar/Song Writer for Suspended. I use a Ibanez Guitar and Marshall stack. However I create our unique sound with some Wah, Flange and Comp. I am really damn serious about performing music the right way, even if that takes years of practice. I have a big dream for Suspended's music, not only what it will become but what it already has become. I attend the University of KY, and work a job, so besides music, there's not a whole lot that I do(I guess). Right now I'm just trying to write music and stay ahead of the game. Come check out a show.

The Drummer

Hey people, this is Eric, the drummer for Suspended. I use a Yamaha kit with Zildjian cymbols. I started playing at age 15 as a freshmen in high school. The best thing about being a drummer is that whenever I have a bad day, I have something I can beat the hell out of to let off steam. My biggest influence is definitely Dave Grohl. He is by far the greatest drummer ever. I also like bands such as Creed, Alice In Chains, and Godsmack. Whenever I get free time, I am usually watching, playing, or attending a baseball game. I also try to go rafting every summer.
