The project started a few years back with Brendan, Dave, and Jim.
Jim is a multi-instrumentalist who plays drums and keys as well as guitar. He is also currently the band's producer.
Dave is a seasoned and skilled lead guitarist who has largely played it all in his years.
On top of being seasoned player, Dave and Jim are also very good songwriters.
Brendan gave the group a third good songwriter, and soon elevated the project with his energy.
The trio then collaborated on some three dozen songs together, working together to improve the ideas each submitted, including the first ten songs on the upcoming record. You can judge the considerable quality of that work for yourself.
The three also put together their own recording studio, a considerable advantage for any band or project to have.
After some lineup changes over the next couple of years, Jeremy tried out and was brought in to the project, adding strong vocals and fresh lyrics to the written music.
The growing momentum and writing of the project has just recently added Curt on bass and Mark, a third strong guitarist, to fill out the lineup.
Both bring a lot to the table, not just for the upcoming record, but for the writing still to come.
All of YouKnow are seasoned local players who bring energy to what promises to become one of Cleveland's best original bands. The emphasis is on strong rock songwriting that covers a considerable range of music. But the band also will spare little to put on a solid live performance as well.
Currently recording their first CD and rehearsing, YouKnow will be debuting in early 2009.
