Drummer Luke Brandt has been playing drums since the age of 3. He started by playing on pots and pans and oatmeal cans. Then his parents bought him his first Starmaker drum kit - which was busted up very shortly after. Several drum sets later he was playing in church bands and jamming with high school friends. Over the years he started playing heavy metal, influenced by his uncle that played in a lot of metal bands. His musical influences come from Metallica, Ozzy, Disturbed, 3 Doors Down and many others.
The Band
Bassist Mike Iwancio has been playing bass from around the time dinosaurs roamed the earth. Started on guitar in a band with three guitars and no bass, time to switch to bass. Played Temptations, James Brown, Four Tops, Kinks, Monkees, Taproot, Shinedown, Saigon Kick, everything but country and now even a little modern country. Some previous bands include Off Limits in the 90's in the Baltimore area and 442 recently in the PA area. Hope to be playing with Switch it up until the dinos are extinct again.

Lead singer Jon Styer fell in love with the vocal arts when he began singing to Metallica and Pink Floyd albums in the early 90's and has be crooning merrily every since. With a wide range of musical interests from Breaking Benjamin to Dispatch, he can adapt well to most singing styles.
