Here in the PNW, we know Austin and Grace from the alternative emo band Prickly Paranoia. Austin plays the base while his wife Grace (whom he met in the military) plays lead guitar and sings. They perform while also serving as active duty military personnel! Austin is a Veteran Specialist in the National Guard and Grace is an Army Captain, Logistics Branch.
Tony Schmidt is from the Aussie-based band Gen2, currently signed with Golden Robot Records. Established in 2016 in Melbourne, Australia, guitarist and vocalist Tony wished to found a band that mingled the best of old and new music. He has family in the military as well, but he prefers to keep their journey private. We respect his choice and appreciate his willingness to share his own experiences.
