Bastian first came together in the summer of 2002 from the small
farming community of Shelbyville. All five members were originally
in a ska band called Anti-blue that toured the Midwest for 3½ years,
but after they grew up and lost several members, Bastian was formed.
Bastian is a high-energy guitar-driven
independent "rock" band, but really, what band isn't? Bastian
strives not only to have fun but to honor God through the songs the
members
write.
In the short time that Bastian has been
together, the band has shared the stage with such acts as Calibretto
13, Ace Troubleshooter, Relient K, John Rueben, True Vibe, By the
Tree, Superchic[k], For all the Drifters, The Waiting, 38th
Parallel, Lucerin Blue, The Red Hot Valentines, Slingshot 57, and
soon, Cool Hand Luke and Number One Gun. Within the past few months,
the group's CD has received regional radio play on stations across the
Midwest. With its growth and development, Bastian has gained a
booking manager, promotional street team, a sound crew, its own
professional PA, and a strong and growing fan base.
