[edit] Band history
The band was formed in late 1998 by guitarist Jeramy Koepping and Peter Marchese on guitar and vocals. They recruited bassist Dayna Loeffler and a series of drummers before John Hollis (1) joined the band. The band recorded a demo record Zeroes and Ones, Parts One and Two in 1999, which received airplay on Seattle independent radio station KCMU (now KEXP) leading to the band being signed to Loveless Records.
Their debut record From the New Nation of Long Shadows was released in 2000. Monster Zero followed in 2002 on Loveless Records followed by Dissolver on Tokyoidaho Records in 2005.
Voyager One live shows typically include visual effects from one or more film projectors operated by Projectorhead. The projectors show spliced-together clips of salvaged short films on the wall behind the band. Projectorhead collects the source material for and assembles the films.
