In February 2002, Todd South (lead vocals, acoustic guitar), Lenny Supera (electric lead guitar, vocals) and Jim Cap Stapp (drums, percussion, vocals) met via the Internet, exchanged original MP3s, and eventually got together for an informal jam session. In less than two weeks, the energy and creative vibe from that first meeting led to the formation of Burning Peace and the beginning of an amazing journey.
Before a month had passed, Burning Peace began performing on various local stages, experimenting with arrangements during live shows and working hard to add something new & exciting to the growing indie music scene. By October 2002, their all-original material and energetic live show began to draw the attention of music fans and the independent press.
Although the majority of Burning Peace songs begin with veteran composer Todd South, the varied songwriting, recording, and live performance experiences of each band member combine to form a unique and cohesive whole. As South notes, Ive performed some of these songs as a solo artist, but its clear that none are really finished until the rest of the band add their unique talents & insight. I never dreamed Id be part of a band this good! The fact that both Lenny and Cap are longtime songwriters is the real secret to the Burning Peace sound.
The first Burning Peace album (Over The Water, released June 2003) is both a snapshot of where the band has been and a glimpse of things to come.
After performing over 100 shows (ranging from house concerts & coffeehouses to 1,000 seat amphitheaters & special event stages) Burning Peace took several leaps forward in September 2003 with the addition of Joe Warmelink (bass guitar, vocals). The bands popular live show was kicked into overdrive with the advent of four part harmonies, Joes melodic riffs, Lennys mind-bending leads, Caps acrobatic rhythms, and Todds soaring vocals.
Based in Reno, Nevada, Burning Peace has hosted the extremely popular open mic night at Waldens Coffeehouse since June 2002 (earning the Reno News & Review Readers Choice award for Best Open Mic in 2002 and 2003).Have you performed in front of an audience?Our live show is what Burning Peace IS!
