Fivespeed Comprised of vocalist Jared Woosley, guitarists Jesse Lacross and Brad Cole, bassist Rob Anderson and drummer Chad Kinney, Fivespeed originated in 1997 as an Alternative-Rock act that was able to deliver a multifaceted attack and a stunningly powerful live performance. The quintet based in Peoria, Arizona USA, released a 6-song CD on Sunset Alliance and soon after Kinney left the fold. After bringing in new drummer Chad Martin the group released their first full-length album, "Trade In Your Halo", in 2002; with two releases under their belts Fivespeed developed a strong nation-wide fan base thanks in part to multiple tours with Finch, Blindside, Jimmy Eat World, Breaking Benjamin, At The Drive-In and others. In 2004 the band aquired a new member, drummer Shane Addington, who replaced the departed Chad Martin and in August 2005, Fivespeed issued their next release, the EP "Bella", on Equal Vision, it includes the radio single "The Mess".
