An alternative rock band bent on bringing musicianship and artistry back into the pop/rock realm where the Big Five rule on high determining what popular music should be. Ignoring fads and making music contrary to format is what they do best and in doing so have created a pop/rock way to progress music into artistry unhindered. There's no one telling them to create or not create, no big five machine, nothing. Only the purpose of exploring the human condition and its ultimate fate. They believe there is a way out and without blind acceptaance their music works out a faith with fear and trembling to decide what is the purpose of life, art...everything. The members of AutoDefe are Dan Algara (guitars, vocals), Josh Paul (Bass), Richard Barnett (Drums). All live in So. California. They have toured extensively for the past 3 years on US tours and are currently working on a new EP set for release April 12th. With plenty of distributors and radio lined up they are expecting this to be the most widely distributed and heard release yet.
