We met for the first time during Freshman orientation at Loyola University New Orleans. It turned out we had a class together, Music Theory 1! Brian tried to test out of the class, but luckily our teacher made him stay so he could get the experience taking Theory 1 with his peers. Good thing too, because Amanda was able to sit by Brian and make him help her pass the class.


During that first year of college, our friendship slowly evolved into love and we were dating by the time spring break rolled around. Senior year, we moved in together and after graduation, we moved to Chicago. After Amanda finished grad school, Brian asked her to help his band out with some backup vocals and we started playing together in all sorts of bands and we've been jammin' along ever since!
