Artist Biography by Mario Mesquita Borges
Combining influences ranging from indie rock's
original melodies to alternative rock's unique and dazzling references,
Trusty's creations distinctly provided the most flammable aspects of the
punk rock revival style. Forming in Little Rock, AR, in 1989, Trusty
first appeared with a lineup consisting of James Brady (guitar, vocals),
Bobby Matthews (guitar, vocals), Paul (bass), and drummer Bircho.
During the succeeding months, the band released its first demo and
shortly afterward Trusty, the group's first and eponymous debut album.
In the following year, bassist Paul left, and was later replaced by Brad
Long, formerly a member of Sobering Consequences. In 1992, the crew
decided to relocate to Washington, D.C., releasing the single Cockatoo
shortly before suffering its second lineup change when drum wizard
Bircho abandoned the band and Jim Schaffer filled in the position.
Goodbye Dr. Fate, Trusty's second full-length disc, showed up in 1993, months before the band embarked on its first major tour. Gaining a substantial fan base and capturing their better tunes on-stage, the quartet eventually dedicated the subsequent years to two nationwide tours. Fourth Wise Man, Trusty's second release for the Dischord Records label, hit the record stores in 1996, and in that same year the band made its debut tour in Europe. However, in July 1997, months before entering its third extensive U.S. tour, Trusty announced they were disbanding. In 1999, Brady and Schaffer, along with Norman Mayer Group's Kathy Cashel, decided to assemble a new crew dubbed the Blisters.
