Details:
All four members of Leaving Sideways are seasoned veterans to the New Jersey music scene. Having enjoyed success with other local bands, the group officially formed in February 2008. Leaving Sideways is a guitar driven hard rock band with pockets of funk and melody.

Davin and Raj come from the band âin.spite.ofâ, where they have spent the last 12+ years harnessing their talent. With music bringing them together at age 13, Leaving Sideways is the third official project for them. While âin.spite.ofâ continues to pound the pavement, Davin and Raj have added this new project, furthering their experience in the rock genre.

Kevin has drummed for a number of different bands over the last decade. Gaining exposure in the cover and original scene, Kevinâs most recent project was named âGhettoâ. Due to creative differences, he left the group in 2006. Since that time, Kevin continued to play, while actively searching for a new band that matched his vision.

Don comes from âBreaker 1 9â, an all original band from central New Jersey. The group called it a day in 2000. Don spent the next several years jamming with various musicians, honing in on his songwriting skills.

In February 2007, Davin and Don joined forces. For a number of years, they were acquaintances who frequented the same local hangout. During this time, they kept each other updated on their latest projects. Driven by music, the two ultimately decided to take their interests to the next level. Davin and Don set forth on their first jam, not knowing that it would eventually inspire the formation of a brand new project. Armed with an arsenal of ideas, Raj joined them two months later. With four songs nearing completion, the trio went on a search for a drummer. Eight months would go by before Kevin ultimately filled the void. He answered an ad that was put up by Don at a local music store. After just one jam, the group knew that the line-up was complete.

The band settled on the name âLeaving Sidewaysâ based on their rehearsal arrangement. The guys shared in.spite.ofâs practice space. Due to the amount of equipment in the room, each member had to exit the studio by turning sideways, thus coining the groupâs name.

In April 2008, Leaving Sideways exploded onto the scene, playing its first show in legendary Asbury Park, New Jersey. Thriving off that showâs positive feedback, the guys continued to write and perform, striving to reach the widest fan base possible. With an albumâs worth of material under their belt, the group began tracking their debut record in the fall of 2008. The full length album will be released in the summer of 2009. To help promote the music, Leaving Sideways released a 3 song sampler in the middle of October 2008.
