From the band bio:
“TESTAVERDE is a loud, fast rock band from New Orleans with great heavy guitar sounds and a pop sensibility. The brainchild of singer/songwriter/guitarist JOE BOSTICK, it was formed in 1999 and survived several personnel changes over the years before settling into its current lineup in 2009 featuring DAN SCHUBARTH on 2nd guitar, KEVIN DAVIS on drums, and KEVIN COMARDA on bass. November 2011 saw the release of TESTAVERDE’s debut album “HATE THE BABY,” and October 2012 saw the release of their second album “HOG BURST.” Their energetic live performances have won them many passionate fans as well as opening slots for ARCADE FIRE (6/11/04) and TRANS AM (5/19/04.)”
“The mad skills of each of the band members in this local ‘hypersonic pop’ group are good enough for them to go full-tilt into some serious hard rocking that could kick the asses of anything on a major label…” –Antigravity Magazine, Dec. 2011
Testaverde broke up at the end of 2012. I really liked playing this music.
