| The Invisible Solid (Mar 2005 - present) Brian - vocals/guitar/bass/percussion/saxophone Bill Lambusta - bass/guitar/drums/vocals Frank Lettieri - drums/vocals/guitar/bass/keys Jeff Fiedler -piano/keys/vocals/drums/guitar/bass (from Nov 05 - present) Other Musicians Involved in the Project: Drew Novelli - bass/guitar/vocals (March - November 2005) Kevin Titze - drums for one-off live performance of 'Joseph' in Feb. of 2005 After quitting Luck Out, Brian embarked on a solo project, recording and producing his debut EP, Audience of Strangers. He soon got together with Frank Lettieri, announcing a collaborative recording project. Brian then tapped old Luck Out mate Bill Lambusta as the session bassist. Meanwhile, Brian was trying to book his solo act for shows under the name 'Brian and The Invisible Solid' (claiming that you couldn't see his backing band but to just believe him...they were there). Learning that you couldn't do that, Brian, Bill, and Frank officially joined together as a performing unit. Drew Novelli was brought in (and subsequently contributed to the recording sessions) and thus The Invisible Solid was born. They recorded a demo called Children of the Cow Duck which remains only partially released. The tracks/credits are as follows: 1. So Unreal (Brian- vocals, guitars; Bill- guitars; Frank- drums) 2. Memories (Frank- vox, guit, bass, keys, drums; Brian- guit) 3. Always Will (Brian-vox, guit; Bill- guit, bass, vox; Frank- drums, guit, vox) 4. You'll Come Around (Br- vox, guit; Bi- guit; Fr- drms, Drew- bass) 5. Invisible Stain (Frank- vox, guit, bass, drms) 6. Eternity (Frank- vox, guit, bass, drms) 7. Joseph (Br- vox, guit; Bi- bass, guit, Fr- drms) 8. Goodbye on Tuesday (Fr- vox, guit, bass, drms, Bi- guit, vox, Br- vox) 9. Drive Down 495 (Br- vox, guit, drms, keys) 10. You'll Come Around (acoustic) (Br- vox, guit) Album Recorded & Produced at Frank's house by The Invisible Solid Engineered by The Invisible Solid (but mostly Frank) Mixed by Bill (trx 1, 3, 4), Frank (trxs 2, 5, 6, 7) and Brian (trx 7, 9, 10) Throughout the Fall of 2005 the band worked hard to stay tight with Brian living far away from Bill, Frank, and Drew. But something eventually gave as Drew left the band to pursue a career in television. Producer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Jeff Fiedler was brought in to replace Drew and has helped turn The Solids into a much stronger musical unit. September 2006 marks a return to the studio for the band as they get set to record their debut LP, Water Damage. |

| Principea Discordia (Apr 2006 - July 2006) Brian - bass Mike Messana - lead guitar Christian DeGeorge - 12-string acoustic John Tue - drums Brian joined Christian DeGeorge's discordant jam band as the de facto bass player. Falling somewhere between a twisted Dave Matthews Band and a sober Radiohead, the band only played one show with Brian on 5/27/06 before he was fired by Christian for his excessive heroin habits. |

| Twin Songwriters (June 2006 - present) Brian - guitar, bass, percussion, vocals Tim Ryan - guitar, bass, piano, vocals The first calculated songwriting collaboration Brian ever entered into. The Twin Songwriters made their stellar debut on 8/26/06 at East Enders Coffee House playing a set of realized covers and clever originals that incorporated the idea from Brian's recent, successful "Impersonation/Inspiration" live sets, Tim's overwhelming love for The Beatles, and the pair's penchant for male vocal harmonies. Things went so well that Brian invited Tim into The Invisible Solid. And at the time of this writing, that part of history has yet to occur. |

| Other Notable Projects That Brian Has Been Involved In: The Rider Vibes - Vocals. A cappella group. Brian quit before recording commenced. (Dec 2003 - May 2004) Documentation Control Supervisor - Vocals/guitar. Comedy duo with vocalist/percussionist Christ Haritos. Recorded demo of "Uncle Larry's Snare Drum." The demo has since been destroyed. (Feb - Jul 2004) Mutt's Codpiece - Vocals/guitar/saxophone. Avante-pop band. Recorded one demo, "Love or a Disease" before disbanding. (Summer 2005). The Flying Supermen - Vocals/keyboards. Old high school radio show: Dimitri & Chris Haritos, Louis Rodriguez, Christina Barbera, Erik Lundoy, Christian DeGeorge. Their failed attempt to make a comedy album. A classic case of too many cooks in the kitchen. Brian's 50-page script reduced to toilet paper...but that's okay - worse things have happened. |
