Details:
The Switch came together in bits and pieces.

In early 2005, singer/guitarist Aaron Kyle was laid off from his job and decided to hit the road for a month. His old friend Christopher Harrison had a van and an equal amount of free time on his hands, so they headed off on a cross-country tour.

Back in L.A., Aaron met up with Joe Napolitano, a Brooklyn transplant and percussionist with an affinity for Bongos and Shakers. Aaron and Joe decided to put together a proper band. And after a few months of playing as a duo around L.A., they added Maria Deluca to the mix.

Maria was the trumpet player for popular New York ska band "The Loose Nuts", and had once played viola for the pope (the dead one, not the nazi), so she was happy to add these well-honed skills, and a much needed woman's touch, to the group.

The last two members came soon after. Christopher Harrison, the man with the van, signed on to play bass. And when the group was lacking a piano player, Maria recommended composer Joshua J. Charney. Josh jumped on board and the group was complete.

The Switch have performed live on KXLUâs "Demolisten" and have turned on Audiences around L.A. with their steady rock hard sound.

"Hello Today" is The Switch's first official EP. Produced and recorded by Joe Napolitano, "Hello Today" was released in January 2007.

Come check out The Switch live at various venues in LA (Tangier, Silverlake Lounge, El Cid, Mr. T's, Club NME @ Spaceland ect.), or in a town near you. They're bound to be there soon... Hello Today!
