With sales of three million albums worldwide and a reputation for spectacular live performances, the genesis of The Verve Pipe can be traced back to the early 90s, when lead singer Brian Vander Ark and drummer Donny Brown, members of two rival Michigan bands, joined forces. After the additions of lead guitarist AJ Dunning (later replaced by Dan Matheny) and keyboard/percussionist Doug Corella, The Verve Pipe quickly garnered a following for its textured rock songs distinguished by inventive arrangements, soul-searching lyrics and layered vocals.
The Verve Pipe continue to perform selected dates throughout the U.S. to both a devoted following and a growing number of new fans.
