Since not gigging the last month, the band has been working hard to get our studio, Center Street Studios, in Nashville up and running. US will be back playing out come september and everyone is super pumped to get back to it. In the mean time, songs are flowing, passion is brewing, and changes are exciting. Get ready for the best US yet. In the words of the terminator, “We’ll be back.” See you all soon.

This past May marked 10 years of US. UnNamed Servant started out a three-piece groove-rock band out of Nashville, TN. Gregg and Rob, originally from Southern California, and Paul from Minnesota, the three starting touring venues all around the US from California to Florida picking up US followers along the way. 19 year old Skylar was one of them. He started out running sound for US and just never went home. It was 2007 that band decided it was time for a fourth and Skylar naturally fit right in (he had played drums for a band formerly known as powdered toast under the alias disco stu) . Since then the band has developed their sound to fit into the pop/rock genre while keeping to their groove roots. 10 years has produced 4 studio albums, 4 international tours, thousands of CD’s sold, and too many stories to count. So here’s to 10 more years!

As well as being an awesome drummer, Paul loves Indian people. The next 3 weeks he’s going to be hosting a trip for 20 college students to see parts of India that most never get to see. They’ll be riding on the trains, visiting with Indian friends, and even making some village stops to encourage the poor and meet some physical needs. The rest of the band is recovering from the accident and already grabbing guitars to start cranking out some new tunes. Stay tuned…

Due to an unfortunate road side accident in Kampala, Uganda, UnNamed Servant will be unable to continue the Africa/India US Tour. While the incident and injuries were serious, preliminary doctor’ reports show nothing life threatening. Thanks for your prayers and support during this time. We will post follow up news in the coming weeks.

After three fast-paced days in Iowa, Unnamed Servant is back in Nashville. The band kicked off their Iowa tour at the Coffee Attic, where the band performed for some 10-year-hardcore US fans.  Saturday afternoon US was on the main-stage in Garner, Iowa at Bash on the Farm Music Festival. It was high-energy set that had audience and other bands jumping with US. On Sunday morning UnNamed Servant put on a show and shared some history for their friends at The River’s Edge. It was an intimate time of songs and stories behind the music from around the US and overseas serving the poor. The band’s grass-roots following is only getting stronger after this past weekend. Oh Iowa why are you so far?! Stay tuned for information on upcoming tours to Africa and India this summer…

US is performing main stage one Iowa’s trend setting music festivals this Saturday at 1:30pm. ‘Bash on the Farm’ has been a staple crop in the mid west rock scene for over 10 years and will set the stage for over 70 bands on multiple stages this weekend. In addition to their standard high-energy electric performance at Bash, US will be playing a personal acoustic set at the Coffee Attic in Iowa Falls on Friday night at 7pm to re-connect with friends and fans in the area. If you can’t catch either one and you got nowhere to go on Sunday morning come see them at River’s Edge at 10:37am. They’ll be sharing a peek at their work behind the music with people all over the world. See you this weekend, in person, online, or soon!  Check our Facebook or ReverbNation page for more details.
