Artist Info: Merkit

Merkit started in 2005 with two songs. Nevin wrote guitar/bass (which he never played before), vocals and drums for an entire song and recorded it with a friend. John Fahy did the same and asked Joe for help with drums. After those two songs sat around for a while, we decided to start a band. We asked chris to play drums and thus Merkit was born. All members write music and lyrics. John and Nevin switch off playing bass and singing. The songs are sometimes simple, sometimes complex, and alwalys fun. [read more...]
