3 Quarters Dead was formed in May of 1999
by original members Mark Alexander, Kenny Wyatt, JP Massengill, Richie
Williams,and Waylon Reavis. After gaining local and regional attention and
recording their debut album “Blueprint of a Strange Mind” they returned
from a tour with Mushroomhead and Avenged Sevenfold to record their second full
length album with Skinny (Steve Felton) of Mushroomhead. Waylon Reavis was
eventually recruited by Mushroomhead to take the place of vocalist Jason Popson (aka
J-Mann) who had announced his departure from the band in mid 2004. After the
departure of guitarist JP Massengill and bassist Richie Williams, 3QD started
the new and present lineup with Mark Alexander, KennyWyatt, Sam Rhodes, Matt
Staley and vocalist Jason Sain.
