first off, name & instrument you play.
Justin Garza: Lead Vocals
Terrence Wilson: Bass
Travis Wilson:Guitar
Riley Knapp: Drums
How did the band start?
Riley and Justin had been playing and writing together for awhile, trying to find other members that were as committed and passionate towards music as they were. Through good fortune along came Travis and Terrence, which completed the TSP lineup. Within 2 months we all wrote about 10 songs together and released our first single “Streets Of Gold” in November 2010.
Where did the band name come from?
It was super random, Justin was watching some TV and on the commercials it said “Get ready for The Season Premiere of “Lost”. He thought it was catchy, refreshing and something that would never get dated…so we just went with it!
Before a show, who takes the longest to get ready?
RILEY. HE IS SUCH A PRINCESS. However, his hair is always perfect.
Celebrity crush ?
Rilley: Woman: Ashley Greene. Man: Jered Leto Haha.
Terrence: Natalie Portman
Justin: Sophia Bush FO SHO!
Travis: …
What is your guilty pleasure?
Travis: Eating a copious amount of sandwiches
Riley: Dubstep
Justin: The Disney Channel
Terrence: Starbucks
Who/what is your inspiration to play music?
We all feel that were playing music not just because we love it, but because we were meant to do it and that were apart of a bigger plan than we can’t even explain. We are inspired by everything and everyone. We are inspired and driven to influence our audience in a positive way and hope to express all the simple and amazing joys of life through our songs and lyrics.
Most memorable show?
Probably our show with our good friends in Anarbor. It was nearly sold out and it was just an amazing lineup of bands. Every band on the show had been friends for a super long time. There is nothing better than watching the people you love, do what they love.
Favorite state to play in?
California. There is just something about those California kids and that crisp, California air.
Describe each other in one word.
Terrence: Brainiac
Riley: Princess
Travis: Absurd(if you think you’re funny, you wont think so once you meet Travis).
Justin: Inspiring
If you could change one thing about the world; what would it be?
Peoples respect for each other. Seems as though people never consider others feelings or backgrounds. It’d be nice to see a world of people who loved and respected each other more.
upcoming tours/shows? EP?
Tour in July(DATES COMING SOON)!!! Our debut EP “For All The Lovers” is scheduled for release in late June, along with our first music video for our single “Anything But Love”.

If you could have one super power, what would it be & why?
Justin: I don’t want a super power, just desperately want to have Ninja like skills.
Travis: Id want some gnarly x-ray vision. Mainly to see what kind of under garments people are wearing, so I can laugh at them.
Riley: I just want to fly, id put Superman to shame.
Terrence: If i could have some laser beams come out of my eyes, that would be rad.
Dream tour ?
Third Eye Blind, Relient K, Jimmy Eat World, Anarbor. What else would we possibly need??
Lastly, what do you have to say to your fans?
We cant believe all the love and support you all have given us thus far. We would be absolutely nothing without you. You really are the backbone of this band and are in every way our inspiration. At the end of the day our music isn’t going to change the world necessarily, but we do hope to offer each of you a chance to escape whatever it is that your facing at the moment. We love and adore each and every one of you and only hope to have the opportunity to meet you all on the road in the near future.
Stay true, stay you.
Much love,
Justin, Terrence, Travis & Riley
