Band Bio

Meet Jonathan Louis Hedges; Recently laid-off from a temp job working for a catalog company selling imported pewter dragon figurines to truck stops across the Midwest. Turns out there's much to be said about editing when it comes to inputting names and addresses, so when he shipped a box of ruby-eyed statues from the "Defenders of Eternal Virginity" collection to a Vacation Bible School in Duluth, he was promptly fired. That, is where fate stepped in...

See, Jonathan knew a friend, who knew a friend, who had a cousin who had a roommate who was friends with a guy who taught guitar. And that guy, also knew a guy who recorded music in the basement of his grandma's house when she was away at vespers-- so with those two guys, and one other guy who was just unemployed and happened to overhear the conversation that all the other guys were having, Jonathan formed his band: Riddled With Tipos.

It wasn't until much later, of course, (four cases of t-shirts later, to be exact) that anyone informed the guys of the misspelling-- thus becoming the premise of their work.

Riddled With Tipos is:

Jonathan Louis Hedges- Vocals

Guy who taught guitar- guitar

Guy who taught guitar's roommate who records music in his grandma's basement- Bass

Guy who was eavesdropping at just the right time, who also possesses a reading disability and who somehow, blended in with all the other guys- Drums

Billboard says, "I've got to say, after I listen to their music, I feel helplessly confused. My heart says 'catchy', but my brain says 'Um... What just happened? Is that really what they wanted to say?'"

Hear the music Rolling Stone calls "Emotional and misguided. I'm not sure they know what they're saying much of the time. I found it quite upsetting. Definitely two thumbs up."

"Finally, music I can listen to!"
