Orlando, FL

Orlando, FL-based Big 10-4 got their start in 2004 as vocalist, pianist, and guitarist Dan Verduin, guitarist Matt Verduin, bassist Matthew Reed, and drummer James Russo joined forces to form a rock band. Honing their chops at dive bars around Florida, Big 10-4 got their break when they were signed by Universal Records in the summer of 2005. Their debut album, Testing the Atmosphere, came out the following spring. ~ Marisa Brown
