Formed in the summer of 2014, Richmond's the Mad Extras were born from an innocent jam session in drummer Jeremy Morris' basement. It didn't take long for these four friends (Andrew, Jeremy, John and James) to realize that the chemistry was undeniable. James's rolling bass lines locked in with Jeremy's explosive drumming, and John's killer guitar lines played off Andrew's howling melodies. The mission statement was simple: put on a rock show that would be a party for both the audience and the band. The Mad Extras want to dance and they want you to dance. Combine this attitude with straightforward and catchy "80's-era angst-fueled dance rock," and you'll start to get the picture.

Richmond, Virginia based The Trillions siphon sounds from their favorite high-intensity bands: some pop wizardry from The Strokes, big-and-loud drums from Led Zeppelin and The Who, a dose of bombastic shred and guitar feedback from Pinkerton-era Weezer, smears of vocal attitude from The Buzzcocks, all drizzled with some topical lyrics and harmonies à la The Beatles, The Zombies, or Dr. Dog. In 2013, they were named as one of Virginia's top 12 bands you should listen to now by Paste magazine. The band recently toured with J Roddy Walston and the Business. That tour included a sold out show at New York’s famous Bowery Ballroom, as well as, sold out shows in Boston and Richmond. Since 2010, the band has also opened up for national touring acts such as The Head and The Heart, Girl Talk, Best Coast, Motion City Soundtrack, Thao & The Get Down Stay Down, Jukebox the Ghost, and many others. The Trillions feature Charlie Glenn (guitar, vocals), Chris Smith (guitar, vocals), Robbie King (bass) and Jacob Shank (drummer).
