- Release Notes ------------------------------------------------------------- -
Growing up together in Marshall, MI, the members of Small Brown Bike have been
friends, bandmates, and minor bike mechanics the majority of their lives. When
brothers Mike and Ben Reed (vocals/guitar and bass/vocals, respectively),
Travis Dopp (guitar), and Dan Jaquint (drums) were looking for band names for
the project they started in the fall of 1996, they looked back on their
collective small-town childhood and came up with Small Brown Bike, named for a
sentimental Frankenstein bicycle that they had pieced together from parts as
kids. After self-releasing their No Place Like You 7" in 1997 and following up
in 1998 with the (and don't forget me) 7" and appearing on a couple
compilations, the band attracted the attention of Gainesville, FL's No Idea
Records through relentless regional touring and a fraternal relationship with
Hot Water Music. No Idea released Our Own Wars in 1999 before Dopp stepped
down from guitar and friend Scott Flaster took over. The compilation
Collection, including singles and vinyl-only tracks, also appeared that year.
Recorded with producer Ed Rose in between touring with HWM and Saves the Day,
they followed up with their Dead Reckoning CD/LP in the fall of 2001. Dopp
returned to the ranks of Small Brown Bike in January 2002 with a new drummer,
Jeff Gensterblum, signing on in March as Jaquint decided to pursue a full-time
job and school. The band hooked up with the Casket Lottery for an October
split EP. The split was very well received (described as "essential" by some
critics) and further caught the attention of Lookout Records, who then
released their next album, The River Bed, in September 2003. An EP, Nail
Yourself to the Ground, additionally appeared that June on No Idea. After
several months of touring in support, however, Small Brown Bike announced
their dissolution by the year's end. Their last show was played in 2004 at
Chicago's Fireside Bowl.
