Attaloss

Although the bandmembers hail from all over the country, Attaloss formed when singer Danny Aguiluz, guitarist Chris Johansen, bassist Lorenzo Perea, and drummer Dakota Clark met up after moving to Los Angeles, California to follow their respective dreams of rock & roll stardom. Though Attaloss' sound is emotional and uplifting, their dreams were almost cut short before they started after their gear was stolen from their practice space. While the incident was a shock for the bandmembers, the police managed to find their equipment a couple months later, and the group was able to get into the studio in 2011 to begin work on its debut. During the recording process, Attaloss recruited guitarist Matt Geronimo to fill out their lineup, allowing them to capture their recorded sound in a live setting. Their self-titled debut was released in 2012 through Rock Ridge Music.
