Theo

1:With the new generations of emerging artists looking uncertain, there are few blessed with substance and talent. Among those prominent in view is, Theo. The Providence, R.I. native is here to offer versatility & timelessness to the music industry. Recent artists mimic the previous successes of past music individuals, who offer no form of self identity to the music industry, "they seem to be afraid of themselves", says Theo. Coming from a musical background Theo is also a well known DJ.

As the line-up solidified around the 5 actual members escaped from acts such as Metronome Charisma, Deja Mort and Nexus Sun, the band clarified their intentions and started to build the basis of what would be their first demo recorded in 2004.
