Ten56 first assembled on November 4, 2006 on Fonville Avenue in Martin, TN. Scottie Somerville, Adrian “A Drain” Baker, and John “C!-No” Ciniglio had high ambitions of starting a rock band for about a year before this. Finally one night Adrian told Scottie and C!-No he had been playing with a great guitar player, Andrew “Gibby” Williams. All four had previously been in other bands. The first night they got together they knew that this was the band that everyone had been wanting.
