Fringe Shift consists of Austin, Sawyer, and Trey; a trio that work naturally together simply because they've known each other for the majority of each other's lives. Although they've been friends since early elementary school, Fringe Shift as a band is only 3 years old, coming together as a culmination of all three members different musical backgrounds and influences.

Austin being a badass
Austin has only played bass since a few months before the formation of Fringe Shift, but this only makes his skill level more impressive. A natural at just about anything he sets his mind too, Austin honed his abilities to the point of a bass player of several years within several months. He cites bands such as The Red Hot Chili Peppers as influences, and ends up with his shirt off just about every time the opportunity arises.

Sawyer's Sexiness


Sawyer started off wanting to play classical violin, but instead was prompted to learn electric guitar by his dad, at the age of 10. Only taking lessons for a year when he was 12, Sawyer is mostly a self-taught guitarist, but now takes lessons, both vocals and guitar, at Spotlight Studios. He started singing while playing guitar to make "the boring chord songs" more interesting to play. His influences include Muse, Radiohead, The Beatles, and Led Zeppelin.

Trey the Stud



Trey has taken lessons for years, and has developed his own unique style and sound through influences including Linkin Park, Foo Fighters, and Lostprophets. He is unique in the fact that he is left handed but plays with a right handed drum setup, making is playing style different than most other drummer's. Trey’s chill, but opinionated (his own words). He’s also been learning piano and taking vocal lessons at Spotlight Studios.


Since their formation in 2008, Fringe Shift has been expanding their range of venues, and put out a full length EP, Shades Of.
