Although Roswell only formed in the spring of 2006, in one short year they have proven they are ready to pay the dues needed to show the world why they became musicians. Danny Braaten, Jordan Pritchett, and Tahvo Laukkanen began jamming together in April of 2006, and instantly felt a connection, both as friends and fellow musicians. The trio hit the road running and began writing original songs but felt the sound needed more depth. It was with this in mind they added Steve McPherson on bass to fill out the sound in August of the same year. Having their first dozen songs ready, they began doing shows in the Greater Vancouver area and have developed a loyal following. Although their personal musical interests run from heavy metal to country and back again, the bands influences have begun to center around the masters of rock, including such bands as Metallica, Pantera, Motley Crue, and the Misfits.

In Roswell, the discovery set off a flurry of excitement. Sheriff George Wicox's telephone lines were jammed. Three calls came from England, one of them from The London Daily Mail, he said. A public relations officer here said the balloon was in his office "and it'll probably stay right there." Newton, who made the examination, said some 80 weather stations in the U. S. were using that type of balloon and that it could have come from any of them. He said he had sent up identical balloons during the invasion of Okinawa to determine ballistics information for heavy guns.
