How did the band start?
josh had his solo stuff for a while, and we used to be in a band together when we wer ein like 8th grade, so i aquired a recording studio in my basement and stumbled upon his purevolume and was amazed. i told him i wanted to record some songs so he came over and we hit it off again. a little later in the year, mark and elijah were in a class together at the highschool and mark eventually started jamming out songs wiht josh. elijah was primatily in the band for just live shows since josh could not do it all himself. josh and elijah both played in the worship band at their church so they had a lot of history playing together. they had one show prior to me joining the band. we had a drummer chris for a little, but he was married so it was difficult for him to commit. evan and i used to be in a band prior to ltc and was the perfect drummer for the band. the rest is history!
