Hi. We're Velcron. You're supposed to say our name really low and throaty, 'cause it sounds cooler that way. We play loud pop rock. It’s very sing-songy and the content is mostly about girls--we have a few stray songs about things like nonexistent smoking habits and sweeping, but still, mostly about girls. We’ve been playing together for seven years—same three guys since high school. We grew up on Orcas Island and the only thing to do there was to make your own fun. We’re prompt and easy to get along with.

Bands we’ve played with – The Pale, Dub Narcotic Sound System, The Backwalls, Pedro the Lion, The Purrs, Brodie, Late Tuesday, The Microphones, The Malignants, Vista Vista, Driving the Eights, Idiot Arsenal, Wilderness Children, The X Margos, Polaris, and The Ides of March.
Venues – Chop Suey, Central Saloon, Ballard Firehouse, 4th Ave Tavern (Olympia), The Factory (Bellingham), Western Washington University, The Evergreen State College, and all over the San Juans.
PR Work – flyers, call friends, e-mail, make press releases, and pass out handbills.
Instruments – Guitar, Bass, Drums, and two Vocals
Crowd draw – About 35 people (more keep coming)
Touring – Not yet…
Set length – We can play from 20 minutes to 2 hours
