THE VIOLENT ARP BAND
It's been a long time since the last update and I have much to share with you. Early this year, I joined forces with three other musicians, forming THE VIOLENT ARP BAND. The member ship consists of ELI CATERER on guitar, MATT JENCIK on bass, MIKE MAZZOLA on drums and myself, JIM MAGAS, on vocals. Thus far, we've been revamping some of our favorite songs from MAY I MEET MY ACCUSER and VIOLENT ARP. I can't tell you how thrilled I am to be working on these songs with these great musicians. They've managed to help take these songs to the next dimension.
