A Little Background:
Expecto! formed in October 2009 as sophomores at Groton-Dunstable Regional High School. The five of us began as acquaintances drawn together by a mutual desire to create music and to expand our awkward social horizons. Three years later we have twelve original songs, have played all shows all over the North East, and have found a lot out about ourselves as people while growing up together. This CD is a reflection of all the hard work and passion that has gone not only into this band, but into and out of our lives over these past three years of growth. The songs on the album were all primarily written during our sophomore year of high school with the exception of "Candy Cane", which was written at the beginning of our junior year. Though our style has continued to transform since these songs were written, the material on this album is very special to us. We hope you enjoy, and that it affects you as much as it has impacted us.
