Gus Capone (guitar) and David Pudlo (bass) were childhood school friends who navigated the ups and downs of 1990s high school, girls, and music together in the backyards of Chicago...
A wee bit later in life, Gus met Matt Destefano (Drums) and they deepened a musical partnership playing in several Chicago bands during a big moment in that great city's musical history. The telepathy they developed during this period is on display during each and every ROARMEN experience...
Finally, as the aughts met the teens, these three gentlemen connected with singer-songwriter Guy Corl (Front Dude), formerly of Chicago power pop band The Dynamos. Many shows, records, shenanigans, and satisfied fans have followed!
