Say No More

Formed in December 2001, the indie rock outfit Say No More originated in Salinas, California, with Peter Pedrazzi on vocals and guitar, Tim Spier on drums and vocals, Peter Holbert on guitar, and Jon Rasmussen completing the lineup. Their debut album, Stranger in Dreams, surfaced in 2004, prompting the members to shift to Los Angeles the next year for college. The group then delivered The Transition in 2006 and captured the Best Music on Campus honor via a battle of the bands event backed by Drive-Thru Records and mtvU. That victory secured a Drive-Thru contract, which yielded the third album, What You Thought You Knew, in 2008.
