Biography

Innocent Bystander plays an eclectic mix of alternative, popular, and rock songs- classic tunes as well as music from today. They add on to that base with their own originals that lets them form their own musical identity and make them a hit with their audiences.

Jess, Ryan, and Alex play together with brass instruments in the high school band and also are the core of the TJ high school jazz band playing the drums, electric guitar and bass guitar. This school connection brought the boys together to form a rock band. They have been playing shows with the Puget Sound Youth Music Association to fine tune their sound and have become a tight polished alternative rock band.

In the summer of 2012 they added singer Emily Randolph to their lineup and that has transformed the band into a crowd pleaser. Emily can sing anything! She also performs as a solo artist and has completed recording an album in Nashville during 2012. Emily also plays guitar and adds another asset to the band's now four person song writing team.

The band continues to perform with the PSMYA but have begun to add other gigs to their schedule. The band is always looking for opportunities to play at music venues, festivals, or private partys.
