So, you want a bio? I'll give you a bio. It all started in 1999, when Greg and Tim became close friends in high school. They were both classically-trained musicians with rock aspirations, and soon they abandoned their Chopin and Mozart roots for bargain rock instruments and self-training. "Moxy," their first band, seldom practiced and performed even less; their subsequent project, "SubVerse," achieved its crowning moment when they came in second place in a Battle of the Bands. But we still had fans all along the way, and we found out that people liked what we were doing. But eventually, all teen angst and insecurities come to an end: in order to educate themselves and get a reputable piece of paper, Greg left for Berkeley and Tim left for Stanford, and things were relatively quiet for a bit.

Sure enough, despite parting their separate ways, the desire to rock still raged within them like an unchecked venereal disease. In 2004, Greg introduced Tim to his friend Bryan, and together they made some sloppy, dingy recordings in an even sloppier and dingier basement. But something grew from that basement, and it wasn't just the fungus or Greg's illegitimate offspring. The three of them knew they were on to something, and at that point, the foundation of Cartoon was born.

In 2006, with the end of their college years quickly approaching, it came time to reexamine their options. Somehow, rocking out looked a bit more attractive than their investment banking and McDonald's alternatives, and so they set out to record a demo. Here's where you've all come in. Like us, people have been digging our music, and our aspiration is to keep making it. We're still figuring ourselves out, and we're more than happy to talk to you about any of the songs if you have questions or criticism. We also hope you keep touch along the way and where this takes us all.

Thanks for listening, and we hope you enjoy our music. We are Cartoon.
