The two quickly discovered that they both had an equal passion to play music. The two started to write songs, but with no serious thoughts of making it anything more than playing around in Matt’s basement. One day Craig invited over Jeremy Gecker, an old friend of his brother, to add some bass to the fun. The three quickly realized that the songs they were writing were exceeding their expectations. In March of 2002, Matt, Craig, and Jeremy along with vocalists Chris Dominick went into record a demo. Soon after the recording, many shows followed. With only a demo, I dreamed of pompeii were given the opportunity to play with a wide array of diverse bands such as Elliot, Keepsake, The Liars Academy, Christiansen, Onelinedrawing, Knives Out, A life once lost, and many others. They were also featured on Wonka Vision Records “Streets of Philly II” comp. After the departure of Chris, the three remaining members regrouped and quickly found a new singer named Alan who fit in perfectly with their sounds and ideas.
I dreamed of pompeii strive to write songs that have an original , dark edge with lyrics that discuss personal issues of their everyday lives. Now, after a tour of the Midwest, a new solid line-up and a 7 in split coming out on Wonka Vision Records, I dreamed of pompeii look forward to the things to come!
