Break Faith

Break Faith formed in late 1994. The original Lineup was Leo on vocals, Mayo Mick on Bass, Chris Legg on guitar, and Jon Level on drums. They wrote the first bunch of songs in Leo's basement and needed a name. Leo, as some of you may know, is crazy; he insisted the band be called Break Faith. He would say how it sounded so perfect. We all agreed it was the worst name we had ever heard. However, while driving home from practice one night, he pulled over on I-91, made Mick get outta the car, and said he couldn't get in until he swore that "break faith" would be the name of the band. A couple of days later, Leo painted a jacket that said "Break Faith 1995 Crew," so there was no turning back. They recorded a demo on a 4-track cassette titled 1995 crew. They gave these away at their first show, which they believe was at Studio 158, opening for Shift. These were the worst-sounding demos ever, mostly because Leo bought the tapes at a dollar store.

Anyway, long story short, Jon Level left the band, and they got Frank on drums, which became the real Lineup. They played a bunch of shows in CT with Hatebreed, Cornerstone, Fastbreak, and Tenfold, among others. Later, they moved Mayo Mick to 2nd Guitar and added Dope George on Bass. Frank left the band so they had Pat Fastbreak fill in a couple shows and then got our friend Barry to join. Leo's work schedule got hectic, so Chris Legg took over on vocals for a few shows. In October 1995, they called it quits and played their last show ever at CT bike exchange in Bristol with 25 ta life. Chris Legg went off to join Fastbreak, Mayo Mick went to do Cromtech and other kooky projects, Leo got married, Frank played in tons of bands, etc. They did one reunion show in 1996 at Maxalunas with the famous Don Raymond on bass, which was awesome.
