High School. Ugh...

...and so...due to the uneventful, brain numbing hell that was/is Tahoma Senior High, Mike Lorenzi and Andy Ruggles decided to make as much noise as possible.
Living in a small sub-suburb like Maple Valley tends to create a build up of some kind of violent emotion in kids that never really "fit in". Such was the case for Mike and Andy. Not the passe' "outcasts" of the school, yet still not beaming with school spirit, Mike and Andy formed Sketch Post Arson, and played as loud and hard as the neighbors and the Maple Valley Police Department would put up with. Although the band began under the name "Muckraker", and since then has had more than nine thousand members...give or take...their influences of hard rock, and spacial experimentation still shine through. With Tony Lorenzi replacing older brother Mike on the drums, Andy Ruggles staying on guitar/vocals, and Mike Lorenzi picking up the bass and a microphone, the final three piece line-up seems as fitting as it could ever be.

Sketch Post Arson is currently in the studio finishing up their debut EP "Motor On". Look for it for sale at a Sketch Post Arson show near you!
