Alki

Danny and John met in Palmdale, Ca around 2004. Having similar taste in music, both were interested in forming a band. Eventually, a mutual friend took it upon herself to put them in the same room, and there they formed their first band "AmpleFire".

In 2005, AmpleFire moved to Austin, Tx. Although, they had some success, the band disbanded 4 years later.

Taking a break from music, Danny moved back to Palmdale, Ca, while John stayed to pursue school. 2 years later Danny moved to Seattle and invited John to visit. Unhappy with school, John decided to take the open invitation and visited in hopes of forming a new band with Danny. John fell in love with Seattle immediately. Before heading back home to Austin, he asked Danny if he was interested in forming a new band. After a few weeks of thinking it over, Danny decided to give music another shot, and “ALKI” was formed.

For almost a year, they played open mics and bars while also looking for a drummer. In came Josh. Coincidently, he had a similar disbanding bring him to Seattle. After years of touring with "The Perfect Pill," in his home country of Lithuania, Josh moved to Seattle for a fresh start. Keeping busy, he played with several bands in search of a good fit. He later found ALKI in a craigslist add. One jam session later, and ALKI had a new drummer.

With a mixture of airy guitars, smooth synths, and bombastic drums, their sound has been said to be a mixture of Coldplay and the Police.

The trio are currently working on new music for their debut album.
