Bryce and Nick met in October, 2008 and began recording together the same day. Ironically, before beginning the redefinition of mixing rap and pop, both members began their music ventures in rock, favoriting artists like Blink-182, Fall Out Boy, and Incubus.
Now, with Nick's exciting, imaginative beats and flows put together with Bryce's original, catchy vocal and writing styles, it appears a new breed of popular music has been assembled.
We like to call it "Hip-POP".
