For What It’s Worth Vocals - Jeremiah Ruff Drums - Kerry DeWitt Guitar - Ahmed Smith Guitar - Pete Joseph Bass - Corey Donell DJ/Sampler - Shane Neville Seeded Crown was formed in late ’97 by friends (guitarist) Pete Joseph and Kerry DeWitt (drummer). The two started writing material and looking for other players: the bass position was filled by another friend and vocals were soon taken care of by Jerry Ruff. Pete had played years earlier with Jerry’s brother John and it was coincidence that Pete met Jerry years later at the time Seeded Crown was being formed. Within months the group (then called dropt) was making a name for themselves with their unique sound and playing countless numbers of live shows in and around the Tampa Bay area. Over the next year the band built quite a large fan base and locally released a four song CD and continued to write new material, but internally the band was having problems with their bass player, both musically and personally, so it was decided it would be best if he left the band. Now in the midst of writing new songs, they had to find someone to not just play bass, but actually be a vital ingredient in the band’s sound and development. As if it were meant to be, this person was found both quickly and locally in Corey Donell, a mutual friend who was in another band at the time but agreed to fill in, and soon became a permanent and pertinent member of the band, clicking both musically and personally with each other person in the group. Over the course of the next year, the band continued to refine their sound and stand out from the crops of bands both locally and nationally while still keeping a hold of their original idea, that being to play music with emotion and feeling with no boundaries on what style of music it should be, to make and define their own style… their own sound. To also help with the diversity, the band soon added DJ Shane Neville to the mix, a friend of the band since the beginning; he added to and became a piece of what was now the furious style of Seeded Crown: low tuned, heavy guitar, flowing phat bass lines, neck breaking beats, sick scratching and sampling all mixed with intense, emotional vocals that can’t easily categorized into one style. That is what Seeded Crown is all about… never swaying from their beliefs for what’s trendy or popular, but being steadfast with their music and themselves. Info taken from here: Crown/ wiki
