Biography
The group members come from all over the South Georgia area, each from a variety of backgrounds, each with different past careers, talents, and various age differences. Having such differences has actually benefited the band, giving them a much wider audience base.
In fact they have already received national attention, which is amazing since they originally started in 12/03.
Elijah Ride's journey began through the inventiveness of Nick Mclellan, of AfterHours Productions, in Tifton, GA; and with his connections with 95.3 the Hook FM, based in Ashburn, GA. Together, they held auditions to try to find "THE" Group of the Area, and actually several groups were organized by Christmas, 2003. However, unfortunately only a couple of the groups withstood the usual "band trials", one of which has been Elijah Ride. Todd Trebony, who is a physician during his "day job"(which is wild), and Scott, a vocal major at Valdosta State Univ., both make up the vocalists for the group, and were in the original auditions. Todd Hall, Lee Taylor, and Andrew Wilkes (who is a songwriter as well) were also chosen as best instrumentalists through these tryouts. They truly showcase the depth that the band has instrumentally. Brant, who was originally asked to be one of the major songwriters for these future bands, was later asked by Elijah Ride to actually join their group due to his awesome rhythm guitar capabilities as well. And once Brian later joined as their lead guitarist, the rest is history. In just their first year together, they were blessed with more opportunities than ever imagined, including being able to play before such acts as: Audio Adrenaline, Point of Grace, Newsong, Kutless, Jars of Clay, Rachel Lampa, Overflow, Jubal's Kin, and others. And this is just the beginning. Scotty Wilbanks, of Newsong, once described their sound as an "original, Christian-Eagles style", which Elijah Ride likes to call, "Worship Rock."
