ATS Bio
The short bio:
At the Spine is a high energy punk rock/indie rock/etc., band that officially formed in 2002 in Seattle, WA (earlier incarnations stretch back to as far as 1992 in Portland, OR).
At the Spine loves and lives to play live music. We believe in the power of music. We try to be good folks, to play good music, and we put on energetic and sincere live shows. We try to do what we can to create a more just, equitable, and sustainable planet.
We write about what we have experienced and seen in the world. Sometimes it is about politics, sometimes it is about relationships and love. Sometimes we are raging against something, like war, or imperialism, and sometimes we are celebrating something in solidarity with the masses of the world. Sometimes we cry tears of sorrow and sometimes tears of joy.
We have played hundreds of shows across the U.S. and a bit in the E.U. since 2002 and released four critically acclaimed albums.

Music has inspired us, moved us, and kept us alive though the good and the bad times, so we are doing our best to return the favor to all those that have come before us, and all those that will come after us. Your support is greatly appreciated.
