Whatever Happened To...#13: Overscene

 Overscene was an up-and-coming rock band I saw open for Sevendust at the Myth in Maplewood, MN in 2008. It was one of Clint Lowery's first shows back with the band shortly after the group released their Chapter VII: Hope and Sorrow album. I never did see Overscene live in concert again, but their performance was still rather memorable. 

The group started in the Dallas/Fort Worth area of Texas back in 2001. The lineup changed a few times before they made a splash on the national scene. Its most noteworthy lineup consisted of guitarists Aaron Korta and Justin Hold, bassist Rrin Dennis, drummer Michael Glass, and singer JR Munoz. A ten-song album entitled The Moment of Change was released in 2008. An EP called Bringin' All My Friends debuted in 2010.

Overscene toured in support of bands including Sevendust, Chevelle, Three Days Grace, and Trapt through at least 2013. There isn't a lot of information online about the band, so I have to assume that they have called it quits. Time will tell if they ever reform, but if they do, I'm sure their followers will welcome them back with open arms.

Well, that's all for this article. Next up is the band Neverset. Until then, have a great weekend, everyone!
