Longview formed in San Luis Obispo, California in Fall of 2002, when vocalist/ guitarist Dan Curcio and guitarist Chris Arntzen began working on acoustic songs in the Cal Poly dorms. The acoustic sessions led to much of the songwriting for the upcoming album "Still Time." It was not until a year later when guitarist Nick Bilich and drummer John Vucinich joined the group to accentuate the band's unique and dynamic sound. Throw in San Luis Obispo's best young bass player, Paul Smith-Stewart, amazing keyboardist Steve Teran, and the mesmerizing back up vocals of Jessie McGill, and Longview's sound has become something that has simply not been heard before. Longview's intricate jam based melodies and insightful lyrics force the listener to stop and think - a feat that few of today's bands have achieved. With a deep respect and understanding for the roots of music, Longview hopes to bring back the days when music was more than just a catchy single and a flashy music video. Although the band's time together has been relatively short, their talent and potential are obvious to all. They expect to release "Still Time" around March 2005.

~~~ "Over the past 15 years of playing and being around music I would have to say that Dan Curcio is the most creative and talented musician that I've met. He could not be joined by a better group of musicians and I think they have the potential to do some amazing things." ~~~
