AboutThe Bay State is a 4 piece Pop Rock band from the state of Maine. It formed in 2004 as lead vocal/guitarist Tom Tash's acoustic project. Quickly deciding that the band needed a full band sound, he reached out to high school best friend and former band mate, drummer Drew Hooke. During the summer of '05 Tom and Drew began to fill in the additional spots in the band with members that would come and go; but from the mix came violist, Evan James. For the next two years the band worked hard to constantly tour, knowing that they had a lot of work to do to get the word out. In 2006, long time friend and supporter Susanne Gerry began working with the band as merch person. Then, in 2008, the band found themselves without a bassist, Within weeks, Susanne stepped up, completely learned the instrument, and took her place as the 4th member of The Bay State. Since its formation, the band has been the featured Unsigned Band on The Gunz Show on Idobi radio to over 100,000 listeners, They were also the featured Buzz band on The Daily Chorus, They recorded 2008's "Let's Turn This City On" EP with esteemed producer Paul Leavitt (All Tim Low, Senses Fail, Mercy Mercedes), The Bay State have shared the stage with amazing bands like Brighten, Danger Radio, Farewell, Sparks The Rescue, Red Car Wire, Holiday Parade, We Shot The Moon, The Cab, Mercy Mercedes, Zox, As Cities Burn, Tamarama (MTV), I Am The Pilot, along with many others! Recently, The Bay State was granted a sponsorship by the well-established clothing company, Glamour Kills, with the song "Hey Hey Glamour Kills". They were also added to four dates at the Take Heart tent at the 2009 Warped Tour. Using this momentum, as well as their constantly growing list of show dates, the band hopes to take their place in the music scene.
