When Ed. Vs. Radio disbanded, Jason Gilmore and Nigel Verboon decided that they wanted to continue playing together, but they wanted to do something different from the pop-punk style they had been playing together for years. This experimentation led to the creation of We Were Animals and the addition of I Died Trying's Mark on drums. The band has released a two song demo with plans for a full album release in July.
We Were Animals visited the WYSO studios for a live set on Kaleidoscope. They chatted with Juliet Fromholt about the evolution of their sound and the decision to start playing live shows after developing that sound.
