Biography
In a search to find others interested in trading videos of live shows, drummer/singer Bob Nanna, of Friction, placed a classified ad in Maximum Rock 'n Roll and met drummer Roy Ewing, of Champaign-Urbana, IL, in 1993. That fall, Bob, a freshman at the University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana, started hanging out with Roy, who played in Lowercase N. Bob's friend guitarist Pete Havranek, of 42 Loads and Inkadink, wanted to play with someone new, so Roy volunteered. Bob became their singer and guitarist, Jay Ryan joined them on bass, and Braid was born.
