Bio
OUT. was formed by Rhode Island native Chad Donnelly
and Louisvillian Dave Bird in late 1994 after Chad's
move to Louisville. After many months of searching
the band was completed with the addition of Tony Bailey
on bass and Russ Pollard on drums. This lineup
quickly made a name for themselves through a series
of chaotic shows in and out of town. OUT. had self
released a five song cassette demo that had been well
received, so with considerable momentum behind them
the band entered Melody Hill Farms Recording Studio
on Derby Day 1996 to record their debut album. They
then left for another tour. Shortly after their return
the band was derailed when Tony and Russ quit. Chad
and Dave set about searching for a new rhythm section,
a task that took them from Louisville to Richmond,
VA
and back. This new OUT. lineup would feature Matt
Odenweller on drums, Greg Livingston on second guitar
and a revolving door of a bass position that would
be filled by a number of individuals. The next few
years saw the band return to Louisville, the release
of their debut album, the recording and release of
a three song seven inch, plus a couple more tours.
In early 1999 OUT. suffered the departure of founding
member Dave Bird. The band soldiered on for several
months before calling it quits in May 1999.
