Brink of Disaster, otherwise known as “Brink” around the Austin music scene, began as a 3-piece instruMETAL act in 2006. Original members Ian Abete, Joey Vera and Tony “Frog” Deaver, first crossed paths in Austin, Texas searching for a mix of musical style, personality and vision that all bands seek in their members but seldom find. Working together they began the writing process and playing shows in Austin’s notorious Red River District with the hopes that someone would hear their music and want to put a story behind it. While playing a show in late 2007 the band was approached by Aaron “Worm” Ugalde, who not only liked the music but believed that he would fit in with his personality and vision. After a few weeks of rehearsing together in their good friend’s living room, Brink began to vibe together musically and in January of 2008 Worm became an official member of Brink of Disaster. Since 2008 Brink of Disaster has been fortunate enough to be able to bring the sonic destruction and energy in their live show to cities around Texas and New Orleans. Their approach to metal is the fusion of the musical style and influences of each band member. In the past four years Brink of Disaster has been anything but silent in this DIY music world and continues to gain momentum with every note played at every show. With a fan base that grows by word of mouth, Brink of Disaster shows that it can and will continue to create the grassroots following that is ever so important to them. As 2010 rolls along, Brink of Disaster will continue to play live shows and work diligently to become a force to be reckoned with night in and night out.
