We started playing together about 13 years ago, making goofy songs. Well the next thing you know we decided to record our songs. We started playing music in our garages, we had a panisonic tape recorder, and a keyboard and a guitar effect processer, a GT-3, and a casio keyboard, and a cheap radioshack mic. We our friends with allot of bands, metal and punk bands, one band, I would like to mention, is the Horrifcs, they are kick ass.Dave and I met when I was 20 about to turn 21. Dave was 18, we are best friends, have been for a long time.

Dave is like my little bro.I remember the first time I met Dave. He was in a jam shirt, singing with a broom handle, and had a fro like Werid Al. I was like what the hell. But then we started talking about music and we had allot of things incommon with each other. Thats what started this band career. I guess you can say we are like a Werid Al meets Slayer/Metallica/Ramones/Misfits/Spinal Tap/The Cure a very werid combination,

AND NOW THE FULL FORCE OF FORESKIN STANDS ALONE AND WILL CARRY ON BAD PUNK ROCK!!!!!! OUR SHIRTS AND CD CAN BE PURCHASED ON OUR MYSPACE PAGE, BY MAIL IN AND SENDING US A MESSAGE WITH A REQUEST

Embodying elements of Jazz, Rock, Down-tempo and New Age, composer / producer Stephan Earl’s music flows across stylistic boundaries yet is focused on the principals of melody, harmony and rhythm. Enchanting and thought-provoking, Stephan composes music that is harmonically interesting and complex, yet accessible to the average listener. His music is the perfect fit for a “Nu-Jazz” world, something Stephan eagerly embraces. “There are so many styles of music that I enjoy,” said Stephan. “Yet I wanted to create a body of work focused around Jazz with ambient textures that capture your imagination and melodies that touch your soul.”

Stephan Earl’s debut album Origins released November 2009 aims to accomplish just that. Described as Nu-Jazz or Contemporary Jazz, this album is the culmination of Stephan’s years of passion and love for music. Its inspirations range from classical music of the 1920′s to World music to Rock and Contemporary Jazz. “I wanted the music of Origins to have the raw emotion of music I composed in my youth, yet represent my current thoughts and influences.”

Stephan Earl was born November 28, 1970, in Queens, NY. Although he wasn’t born into a family of musicians, Stephan grew up as a child listening to music his parents loved by such artists as Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, Nat King Cole and other classic soul and R&B music of the 60′s and 70′s. At age eleven he learned to play the clarinet and within the year added flute and tenor saxophone to his woodwind arsenal. At age 12 Stephan’s Aunt purchased for him a two-octave Casio keyboard which he used to compose his first melodies. “Once I got the Casio and could play chords, I immediately became enticed with harmony and writing melodies. I took the chords and theory I was learning at sax lessons and applied it to my compositions.”
