Thrice

After meeting at high school, Dustin and Teppei left their first band and wanted to continue with their love music. Through a mutual love of skating, Teppei met Eddie, and asked him to join their band (even though he had only ever played guitar before). The search for a drummer led the trio to recruit Eddie's elder brother, Riley.

After realising they were all in the right band with the right people, Thrice was born in August 1998.
