New Life
A band was started almost a decade ago. It was formed by the members of another band that was started even farther back. They wrote some songs, played osme shows, recorded a couple of releases, drifted apart and disappeared.
Well, now they’re returning.
Superificial Hero was originally active in Sonoma County circa 1999-2001. Their lineup included Dylan Abbott on guitar and vocals, Reed Raymond on bass, Lonnie Gilmore on drums, MRC on drums sometimes, and a drum machine and some keyboards powered by a battered desktop PC. Dylan and Reed are currently planning on reviving a slate of songs that they performed towards the end of the bands life, but never properly recorded. Some of these songs were among their best (in the opinion of the band itself) but were never done justice. We’re changing that/ this blog will document that process.
The complicated part of this? Dylan and Reed are now living several hundred miles away from each other. Technology is a wonderful thing though, so we’ll see how that helps them realize their ambitions. Stay tuned.
