Neverwas was formed in June of 2000 by Mike Cole, Terry Grosvenor and Chris Cheevers. The band began to take shape and define their sound, and in October of 2000, Matt Leclair was added as percussionist.
Major musical influences for neverwas. include Pearl Jam, Green Day, Stone Temple Pilots and Weezer. The band's alternative music sound is a combination of grunge rock, punk and pop music. Strong bass lines combined with awsome lead riffs and solid drums give the band a distinct pop/rock sound. In January and February of 2001 as well as March of 2003, neverwas. worked in the studio at RS Sounds in Brantford, Ontario with Randy Solski to record some songs, the newer ones appear under the "The Music" link. At this time, neverwas. is continuing to actively write original music. The live act consists of the original work and the occasional cover of songs by bands such as Pearl Jam, Green Day, The Pixies and Foo Fighters. The band is currently seeking other venues for live performances in Southwestern Ontario.
