Captain Standish + Band in Mankato, MN

ABOUT

Finding its beginnings in the dark murky depths of 2004, Captain Standish began with founding members Trent Fast, Jake Willaert, Ben Manthe, and Mike Kaduce. Since then the band has taken on many forms and many great musicians have cycled in and out of the group. The band really began as an effort for Trent and Jake to play music together, and since then it has been ever evolving until the most solid and most productive form of Captain Standish that we see today, including Trent, Jake, and his brother Josh. The music is made up of dozens upon dozens of songs from collections of demos Trent has put together over the years, along with songs that Jake and Josh have thrown into the mix as well. One finished demo has been released and plans to record billions more demos have been made. After all we do have like a million songs or something. In the mean time come watch us kick your ass live lolz. I see a world tour on the horizon....HAHA. Thank you to anyone who truly enjoys the music we make and to anyone who has ever enjoyed watching us play a show.....Thank you for your time and have a wonderful, wonderful day and a pleasent tomorrow:) (For a complete and way overanalyzed history of Captain Standish visit ://./captstandish
