[edit] History

Sledgeback formed in April of 2004, influenced and inspired by acts such as Social Distortion, Therapy?, Rancid, and Die Toten Hosen. Gaining a large following early in their career, Sledgeback have toured both locally, and internationally, playing in 2005's Vans Warped Tour and even opening for the likes of Flogging Molly to sold out crowds. With their first full length release "People's Choice" through Sliver Records, Sledgeback gained notoriety through bi coastal radio play and crowd pleasing shows do in large part to high intensity performances, while boasting powerfully raw, life inspired lyrics.

In addition with their second release, "Perception Becomes Reality" and after a few line up changes in their brief history, the band features Gabi Hun (Vocals, Guitar), Kevin Past (Drums), Mike Parker (Bass), and most recently Guy Lacey (Guitar and Former War Babies).
