|  With their beginning firmly and proudly rooted in the middle of America,  |
|  Indianapolis natives Gwen Stacy began practicing together in the winter   |
|  of 2004. "Growing up in Indiana was awesome," exclaims bassist and        |
|  founding member Brent Schindler alongside drummer TJ Sego. "We all grew   |
|  up in surrounding areas of Indianapolis and moved closer to one another   |
|  when things started to pick up with the band."                            |
|                                                                            |
|  Since those early days Gwen Stacy has maintained a diligent work ethic    |
|  rivaling older, more experienced bands and have toured America on         |
|  multiple occasions sharing the stage with today's favorites such as The   |
|  Devil Wears Prada, mychildren mybride, and metal sensation The Human      |
|  Abstract among others. "I would say the best part about the tours that    |
|  we've done is that we've gotten to travel and play with bands that are,   |
|  above all else, our friends," Schindler states from the studio.           |
|                                                                            |
|  On the band's full-length Ferret debut, "The Life I Know", Gwen Stacy     |
|  convened with Paul Leavitt (All Time Low, The Bled, From Autumn to        |
|  Ashes), and well-known producer Brian Mcternan to record in the fall of   |
|  2007. "I think the biggest thing I'll take away from this recording       |
|  experience is the fact that an outside opinion is not always a bad one,"  |
|  laughs the band's bassist. "I think the songs are better because of it.   |
|  Paul and Brian are definitely trying to bring out the best in us." "I     |
|  have learned that we really work best creatively as a unit rather than    |
|  individually," states the band's drummer.                                 |
|                                                                            |
|  On "The Life I Know", Gwen Stacy come out and immediately destroy the     |
|  listener's expectations. Vocalist Cole Wallace's delivery hearkens back   |
|  to a time when the message and the need to be understood were an          |
|  essential part of hardcore. "A lot of our lyrics are about faith, how we  |
|  struggle through life, and other things people can relate to," admits     |
|  Wallace. "The newer stuff is more mature than our earlier material,"      |
|  continues guitarist Patrick Meadows. "We've all grown stronger at what    |
|  we do."                                                                   |
|                                                                            |
|  In the coming year Gwen Stacy will go nationwide once again and take      |
|  "The Life I Know" to bigger crowds and venues around the country. "Our    |
|  goal is to play every town and every city," concludes Sego. "Above all    |
|  else, we want to play and hang with the kids and bring our message to     |
|  every place our van can take us."                                         |
|                                                                            |
