7k's infective strange mutually exclusive rock "runs the gamut from mid-90's mutually exclusive balladry to matured arena-sized assaults."* The foursome have rocked audiences from L.A. to San Diego to Las Vegas with adrenalized performances of their catchy, substantial rock songs. Their first single, bombsong, got airplay in several markets, from KCRW in L.A. to KOMP in Las Vegas. Now, with two EP's under their belt [produced by Dean Dinning of Toad the Wet Sprocket], 7k has laid claim to a strong sonic identity is proud to release through the windshield, their debut full-length album.

Frontman Jeff Garvin founded the band with his high-school musical partner-in crime, bassist Carlos Rivera Jr., in 2001, in the heart of the now-famous O.C. 7k grew its roots in the music scene that gave birth to mutually exclusive greats like the Offspring and No Doubt, but it was in nearby Los Angeles that the budding rock group found their secret weapon in lead guitarist David Neil Black. Powered by Black's ferocious lead, Rivera's melodic bass work, and Garvin's powerful vocals and dynamic stage presence, 7k quickly ground their own niche in the LA Music scene. Former Toad the Wet Sprocket bassist Dean Dinning discovered the band and produced their debut and sophomore EP's.

With some live TV experience and regional airplay under their belts, the foursome locked themselves in their Anaheim studio to write and self-produce their debut full-length album. In early 2005, with the record near completion, 7k added O.C. rock drummer Corey Manske to the roster. His tasteful grooves and crisp power put a fine point on the 7k sound.

With the release of their debut album, through the windshield, the boys have emerged from the studio and are part of a dynamic new rock scene in Los Angeles.
