The Knew is comprised of four members that look closely related and may very well be in some branch of the tree. They are a foursome that has energy on the brain that is translated through live shows and their two most recent EPs. The band's 2007 EP, Holladay, ranges from chain-gang blues to uptempo country-punk, and was released in July of that year. Fueled by favorable reviews, the band soon put together a new album full of tasty rock basics as well as new approaches to blues and roots music, releasing Boom Bust in July 2008. The band began 2009 with a tour along the west coast, and are scheduled to appear at the Monolith Festival and CMJ Marathon in the Fall. Recording for their debut full-length started in August, and they plan to release it later in the year.   The Knew are: Jacob Hansen- Guitar/vocals Tyler Breuer- Guitar Tim Rynders- Bass Patrick Bowden- Drums
