SUSTAYN Biography
Decades of experience come together in this supergroup explosion of Rock. Siren melodies dance with wickedly mercurial rhythms calling the dead to life. More a movement than simply music, Sustayn fiercely reminds everyone that life is here and now. It's time to rebel against the living death of just going through the motions, breeding negativity, and holding yourself back. Get a "Front Row Seat" and "Take It All". You were "Born with the Horns" so "What Are You Waiting For"?
Fronting the band is high-octane vocalist Amanda Webb. A graduate of the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music and Interlochen Arts Academy, she now takes her classical roots to a whole new level of badass. Previously she fronted the award winning internationally recognized Blues band, Amanda Webb Band. Her husband, Brian, also having trained at Jacobs School of Music, shreds gritty lead guitar riffs. A multi-instrumentalist and singer. He has contributed to a multitude of projects over the years including Steve Hickman and the Hard Knocks, Eric Hamblen, and The Rainwater 4. Together Brian and Amanda have 5 boys and a lot of dirt to clean up where they live in rural Indiana.
The rhythm section is driven by the bombastic intensity of Jared Asher on drums. He cut his teeth in many bands before finding national recognition in 2006 with The Scallywags on the Zippo Hot Tour. Recently Love Battalion won ISSA US Single of the year with Medium Fish. He has contributed to projects all around the world, and shared the stage with Derek St. Holmes, Kip Winger and Lorraine Lewis. His wife Nicohl rocks the pocket as the Boss on bass. Her chops come from the foundational work she's done along side rock greats Ryan Madora, Julie Slick, and Janet Robin. She has had the privilege of sharing the stage with Samantha Maloney, Lzzy Hale, Vicki Peterson, Wynonna Judd, and Lorraine Lewis. The Asher's live loud on five acres with their rescue pup, but have no kids because putting them in cages is frowned upon.
