Based in the San Francisco Bay Area but originally from Tempe, AZ, Dryspell is an aggressive yet melodic alternative rock band that has strong punk-pop leanings. Dryspell was formed in 1997, when singer/guitarist John Morris joined forces with drummer Gregg Anderson and bassist Al Higgins in Tempe, AZ. At the time, they were students at Arizona State University, but after graduating, they moved to the Bay Area. Originally a trio, Dryspell became a quartet when guitarist/singer Chuck Lindo was hired. Dryspell was hardly Lindo's first band; by the time he met Morris, Anderson, and Higgins, Lindo's resume included such Bay Area bands as the Jumbo Shrimps (which was led by former Dead Kennedys member East Bay Ray) and Klaus Fluoride. In 2000, Nick Reeder (known for his work with Go Kart Go and Stroke 9) produced Dryspell's debut album, Kitty Porn, which was released on the Ill Legal label in 2001. ~ Alex Henderson
