Boy and His Balloon

In my freshman year of high school or somewhere around there my brother Jeff gave me his drum set. Ever since then I have been playing the drums. At the beginning of summer 2010, I decided it was about time for a new drum set so I purchased a one.



When my brother Jeff gave me his drum set, my brother daren and a couple friends of ours started a band called Exit 263. Long story short we were "kicked out" of that band so we started a new band called Beating up Karl. Beating up Karl consisted of Daren on guitar, Kyle on bass, and me on the drums. Well, we all went on missions, and me being the youngest, I got back last. I was looking forward to jamming with the boys again but because of things that happened it was back to just me and daren jamming once again. We started writing new music, with a little different sound to it. We decided to start a new band with a new name because of all that happened. So we came up with the name Boy and His Balloon. Boy and His Balloon consists of Daren on Guitar/keyboard/vocals, Mark Johnson on Spoons/keyboard, Phe Brooks on Tambourine/ back up vocals, Craig as Manager/Crowd dancer, and anyone else who wants to participate via dancing or hitting the cowbell are welcome to come on stage and dance away.



Oh and whenever we play shows there will always be balloons and confetti, makes the shows fun and entertaining.
