Brandon Darrow - Drums and Vocals
MY NAME IS BRANDON DARROW AND I'M THE DRUMMER FOR THE BAND OBSTRUCTION OF AUTHORITY. I AM ORIGINALLY FROM LANSING AND ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN. I GREW UP ALMOST LIKE ANY OTHER CHILD BACK THEN. WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND A GOOD FAMILY.
ONCE I REACHED FIFTH GRADE I CHOSE TO JOIN THE MUSIC CLASS. IN MIDDLE SCHOOL I CHOSE TRUMPET AS MY PRIMARY INSTRUMENT BUT BOUGHT MY FIRST DRUMSET IN THE 6TH GRADE. SOON AFTER I REACHED HIGH SCHOOL AND I NOTICED MYSELF WANTING TO TRY NEW INSTRUMENTS. I PLAYED TRUMPET, TUBA, BARITONE, SINGING IN THE CHOIR, AND PLAYING BASS GUITAR FOR THE JAZZ BAND. I JOINED MY FIRST BAND CHURCH WORSHIP BAND AND MY FIRST CHRISTIAN BAND HYAFFINITY WHEN I WAS A FRESHMAN IN HIGH SCHOOL.
I PLAYED WITH ABOUT 5 DIFFERENT BANDS IN HIGH SCHOOL AND STARTED COLLEGE WHEN I WAS A SOPHMORE IN HIGHSCHOOL. I OWNED MY OWN RECORDING STUDIO AND PRODUCTION COMPANY AND DJ SERVICE. I WAS GOING TO LANSING COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN THE COMMERCIAL PROGRAM. WHERE I CONTINUED TO PLAY WITH DIFFERENT BANDS AND PROGRAMS. I JOINED THE U.S. ARMY IN 2005 AND CONTINUED A CAREER PATH I WAS NOT MEANT FOR UNTIL FEB 2008.
THIS BAND STARTED IN 2007 AND WAS 2/3 MILITARY PERSONEL. OF COURSE PEOPLE IN THE MILITARY MOVE AND COME AND GO, SO IT DIDNT GO WELL.
I GOT OUT OF THE ARMY AND BECAME A JUVENILE CORRECTIONS OFFICER FOR LEAVENWORTH COUNTY KANSAS. I FOUND THAT THAT JOB SUCKED AND DECIDED TO GO TO A JOB THAT WAS A DREAM FOR ME. FASTENAL 7-5PM WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS OFF. THIS MADE TIME THAT I COULD COMMIT TO A BAND.
TONY AND I DECIDED TO REJOIN AND CREATE SOMETHING NEW AND EXCITING. NOW HERE WE ARE BETTER AND STRONGER THAT EVER.
THIS IS THE SHORTEST WAY I COULD EXPLAIN MY LIFE WITHOUT WRITING A AUTOBIOGRAPHY WHICH FOR ME WOULD BE A LONG BOOK.
I LAST OF ALL WANT TO THAT MY MOM FOR LISTENING TO ALL THE LOUD MUSIC OVER THE YEARS LATE AT NIGHT IN HER DUPLEX, DAD FOR ALLOWING BAND PRACTICES IN THE LIVING ROOM, AND MY BROTHERS FOR THE CONTINUOUS SUPPORT OF FAITH AND LOVE THEY GIVE TO ME. THANK YOU TO ANYONE HAS BELIEVED IN ME AND NEW THAT I COULD DO IT AND MAKE IT SOMEHWERE IN LIFE. IT HAS BEEN A SHORT ONE SO FAR BUT THE PARTY HAS
JUST BEGUN........B*#@$FIST.
