Driven By Design recently introduced themselves to the Minnesota rock scene. Based in Collegeville, MN, the band has been working hard on their songwriting and overall sound...and now they are ready for the world to know it. Led by lead guitarist/songwriter Pete Ryan, this five piece group produces hard hitting riffs and mean solos, backed by the versatile and thunderous percussion of Erik Hokenstad. Nic Frost, Dan Pease, and Chris Sele give life to this rock machine with hard and heavy melodies on guitar/bass and crisp, heartfelt vocals.

Each of the band members have been rocking since their youth, moving from band to band until forming Driven By Design. With a wide range of tastes for different styles of rock, and the technical ability to play them all, these guys fuse together in one beautifully harmonious style of rock that is all their own.
