Snakes & Music
Biography
Snakes and Music is comprised of drummer Toby Martin (born March 15, 1975), bassist Dan O'Neill (born November 27, 1976), guitarist Greg Levy (born July 7, 1976), keyboard player Brent Sisk (born February 5, 1976), and fronted by the vocals and guitars of Andrew Low (born June 7, 1977). Located in Ocean Grove, NJ (about a mile from Asbury Park), the band emerged from the ashes of a group called Jazz June, which featured Low and O'Neill and recorded for Initial Records. Originally intended as an Andrew Low solo project, the material that became Truisms on Universal Warning Records evolved from tunes Low had written after the final tour from Jazz June. A number of personnel changes occurred, with Low looking for the perfect mix of musicianship and professionalism. An evening of insanity from some now departed members at a show in Philly prompted the core to look for a level of seriousness and bandmates who would put Snakes and Music at the top of their priority list. Philadelphia has witnessed many of their performances and about six months after they played at a Gainesville festival, they brought guitarist/second keyboard Greg Levy onboard, a bandmate of Low's from a previous group.
