Medications
ON TOUR NOW
(2003 - present)Devin Ocampo - guitar, vocals
Chad Molter - bass, vocals
Andrew Becker - drums
Guitarist and vocalist, Devin Ocampo (ex- Faraquet and Smart Went Crazy) and drummer Andrew Becker met in early 2003 and the two immediately began collaborating on new material. That summer, Becker and Ocampo made their live debut playing shows under various names with a revolving cast of bass players. Finding themselves without a permanent bassist and eager to commit their material to tape, Ocampo called upon old friend and former Faraquet bandmate, Chad Molter to step in and assume low-end duties. The three hit it off immediately, generating ideas and writing songs at a frenetic pace. A self titled 5 song CDep was soon recorded and released in the fall of 2004.
Medications debut full-length album, Your Favorite People All In One Place, was recorded in February 2005 at Inner Ear Stduios by Fugazi's Brendan Canty. Shortly after recording their full-length, Medications went to Japan for their first tour overseas. They have since toured extensively in the states, Europe and most recently in Brazil.
