So Rebreather dates back to 1999 and there were a few phases with this band, as there has been a total of 6 members through the years. I came into the picture around 2007. The band has broken up or paused a few times throughout the years due to life things and whatnot. I think Barley (Rantilla) penned our motto “on your mark…get set…quit.” I met Barley through my dear pal Jeremy Koerber (Lake Lake) the super talented and OG drummer of Rebreather. Jeremy (who plays every instrument well) and I played in a couple Ohio bands previously, one being Favorite Action Hero and another Grandstands On Titan. GOT used to practice in Rebreather’s original practice space (Barley’s garage). Jeremy and I then formed the short lived band Low Divide with Barley. Low Divide really influenced the next phase of Rebreather. That started my awesome musical relationship with Barley up to this day.
