| Bayside > Albums & Lyrics |
Formed in October of 2000, Bayside consisted of four musicians looking for a chance to play music the rest of their lives. They recorded a demo and the band began playing shows around Long Island NY. They quickly caught the eye of Brooklyn, New York's Dying Wish Records, who released their first EP, "Long Stories Short".
Bayside immediately began touring with no signs of letting up. Bayside has shared the stage with acts like Alkaline Trio, Brand New, Further Seems Forever, Glasseater, The Rocking Horse Winner, The Reunion Show, and Taking Back Sunday. They've also completed an east coast stint in support of The Stryder, as well as appearing at the 2002 Skate and Surf Fest, where the bill included bands such as The Get Up Kids, Midtown, Dashboard Confessional, and Finch. During the summer of 2002, Bayside played a three-week stretch on Van's Warped Tour. In October of the same year, Bayside embarked on their first full US tour with Unsung Zeros and Junction 18.
In the midst of all this touring several line up changes occurred, as the band strived to find the right mix of personalities and dedication to get them where they wanted to be. Through the many line up changes there has been one constant...singer/guitarist Anthony Raneri. Eventually Bayside found a compatible mix with the current line up: Anthony Raneri, bassist Andrew Elderbaum, and drummer Jason Drome. Also added during this time was the management of Jamie Arthurs of J&J Artist Management.
Bayside has no plans of slowing down. They recently finished a full US tour from mid February to early April with Indiana's Asking Autumn. Which will be followed by an east coast tour with Junction 18 and The Goodwill. And of course they will be touring the rest of the summer in 2003!
