Under Influenced started in spring of 2009 as a trio (Sam, Kevin, and John), practicing and playing mostly 90's cover songs in garages and basements alike. Eventually, the band's cover songs were replaced by original music, and a fourth member was added to the lineup. The punk/alternative quartet recorded a short demo of their songs later that year, and soon began to play out at regular venues. The band continued playing live shows in 2010, and also recorded two EP's at Cherry Pit Studios - both were released that year.
