Punk Supergroup Lands C&C Drummer

Initials add up to an impressive collection of names.

Pennsylvania's Initials, the more-or-less punk supergroup made up of former members of Hot Rod Circuit, Once Nothing and the Color Fred, just announced they've made another addition to their colorful roster. Joining guitarist Fred Mascherino, guitaris Andy Jackson and bassist Steve Lucarelli will be drummer Josh Eppard, previously of Coheed & Cambria. He replaces original drummer Anthony Martone.

According to Alternative Press, Mascherino was quoted as saying, "We'd been trying out a bunch of drummers looking for the right fit. We had some shows coming up and Anthony Martone took the time to do us a huge favor and learn the songs and play them with us. Since the lineup hadn't been totally solidified yet, and Anthony had other projects coming up, we wanted to makes sure we were all committed to Initials, and that's when Josh [Eppard] walked in and the chemistry was solid. Anthony is a good friend and an amazing drummer, and we wish him well on his other projects!"
