Bio:

Whether it's with their high energy, blow the roof off rock show, or stripped down, intimate acoustic sets, Merrill has been winning over legions of fans with their emotionally charged music since 2006.

The band consists of singer/songwriter/guitarist Chris Merrill, lead guitarist Eli Johnson, bass player Robert Finn, keyboardist Jeremy Dan, and drummer Michael Johnson, to bring you music that manages a soulful past with a blend of rhythm and rock to form a sound that transcends categories.

Merrill has opened for such acts as Maroon 5, Counting Crows, and Augustana. In addition, they were selected to play the 2007 Bumbershoot Music Festival playing with such acts as Crowded House, The Shins, Gym Class Heroes, Danger Radio, and Panic at the Disco. And the band is blowing up the radio receiving regional airplay for their song "The One Thing".

Merrill released their debut EP, "Evolutions" in September of 2008 and will be following it with their first full length album, "A Beautiful Disaster" in September 2009 which includes the hit single "The First Time".

Though the band is often touring, the group's roots are in Portland, Oregon.

drummer lookin 4 a cover project.

Seasoned stick man! Want to play covers. Originals is cool too, with a future. First covers- this tells exactly what kind of people I am working with. If you have an ego, or 'Judge Dredd' attitude of "I Am Da Law" or 'it's my way or the highway'- just keep lookin! If your lax but motivated then lets talk. Prefer a project that already works, or one that is very close to it. Know plenty of covers, prefer the 'newer' (90's early 2000's) heavy stuff as opposed to the 'classics'. (60,'s, 70's, early 80's) But I know some of that as well. I sing back ups, and backing screamo. Will send a song list on request. Will practice/play in the metro. Have gear and transpo. I know some of ya R age specific, I am in my upper 30's.

We are searching for that one Drummer who can bring it. Who understands what separates a Funk drummer from a Rock drummer. Who understands dynamics, and can be the driving force behind a big group. We rehearse once a week on Monday night from 6:30 to 10:00 off of I-25 and 58th Ave. This is a serious endeavor with committed players. If you think you have "the feel", call Tom @ 303-918-7316. We'll set up an audition.

With influences such as bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Rammstein, and Ministry. I am specifically looking for a lead guitarist that can play melodic solos and plays in E standard and that has a lot of technicality, feel and speed playing solos, and a keyboardist who is very influenced by Rammstein, and uses synthesizers and keyboard effects, etc in other words someone to fill in mostly ambiance to the music. I am as well seeking a drummer, who is very experienced creative, and dependable and that can play a mean double bass. When it comes to a bass player I am looking for someone who is very influenced by Cliff Burton and Justin Chancellor and is good at finger picking. I am not looking to become a cover band but a band with a new sound. Looking for people that are extremely open minded! To other styles of music but mainly thrash metal, and as well people who define art in a certain way, through an artistic lyrical message and people who can play an instrument with feeling!!
