WHOLE WHEAT BREAD
Aaron Abraham - Vocals/Guitar (20)
Nicholas Largen - Vocals/Bass/Guitar (22)
Joseph Largen - Drums (23)
WWB was formed by vocalist/guitarist Aaron Abraham. "People joke about us looking like NWA but sounding like Green Day," says Abraham, "but I'd say we live our lives naturally somewhere in between that--edgy, but full of emotion. I got into Green Day at a young age, which was exactly the same time I started playing guitar."
Abraham is a native of Trinidad. At a young age, his parents moved his family to the Miami area. "We were broke and we lived in the worst ghetto areas of Miami for most of my life." Aaron's parents wanted him to have a good education so they drove him over 30 minutes every morning to a predominantly white school near Miami Beach where he discovered punk rock. "But at the end of day, I still came home to my "NWA" neighborhood," Aaron explains.
Aaron would later move to Jacksonville where he would meet bassist/vocalist Nicholas Largen, another young black musician. "I actually met Nick to pursue a rap career," says Abraham. "He was making beats and videos, and people were telling me to holla at him. I found out he played guitar, so I asked him if he could play bass. He could. So we decided to forget the rapping."
Timing was right as Nicholas had up until that point lived a pretty rough life, even serving more than a year in prison with 17 felony convictions on his record. Whole Wheat Bread was the perfect opportunity for him to turn his life around. "I've learned that when push comes to shove and you feel like breaking the law, your ass will pay," states Largen. "So now I try not to break the law and instead spend more time focusing on improving our music, cause at least that will keep my ass out of jail."
Abraham would soon learn that Nick's brother Joe played drums and the lineup was complete. Drummer Joe Largen says, "Being in a band with my brother is great. We've been playing together since middle school and musically we can read each other's minds. Plus, someone has to be there to keep him out of prison!"
In their short time together as a band, they've already shared the stage with some impressive acts including the Suicide Girls, Emanuel, Allister, From Autumn to Ashes, Glasseater, Suicide Machines, Count The Stars, Lucky Boy's Confusion, Inspection 12, Mustard Plug, Bloody Midgets Wrestling, Authority Zero, Sevendust and Long Beach Shortbus, among others.
