In the spring of 2011, Josh Smith (drums) and Aaron Fischer (vocals, bass) joined guitarist Thad Barnette to form the rock trio of The Undefeated. Seeking to combine edgy soul-searching lyrics with a mix of classic and modern rock, the band began exploring their music. With solid reputations as local musicians in Northeast Ohio, they earned opportunities for shows quickly, and in just one year, their popular music propelled them from hometown gigs to the AG National Fine Arts Festival in Louisville, Kentucky. The Undefeated traveled to Louisville, Kentucky, for the National Fine Arts Festival, and were declared one of the top 3 upcoming bands in the country, after dazzling the 13,000 count crowd with their performance in the KFC Yum! Center Arena. In October 2012, the Undefeated released their debut EP of four songs, marked by driving guitar and pounding drums, immediately gaining local radio attention. Between shows at legendary venues and festivals such as The Agora Ballroom, The House of Blues in Cleveland, and The Alive Festival, the band continues to write in anticipation of a full-length album. "The Undefeated; Powerful cutting edge material! With it's own sound. Nice to hear fresh innovative writing that has an edge and not delayed guitar riffs. Powerful with a message!" - Mike Zaremba of Advanced Audio Design The Official Page of The Undefeated http://www.undefeatedband.com
