Nestled in the Santa Cruz Mountains, Outside the Lines is a melodic punk trio forging their unique sound in the heart of West Coast culture. Inspired by bands like Social Distortion, Face to Face, No Use For A Name and The Adolescents; their music is a fusion of raw emotion and guitar-driven melodies.

Fronted by Chad, a seasoned veteran of the San Diego punk scene, the band's sonic identity is defined by his gritty vocals and searing guitar riffs. With roots in influential outfits such as 16 Hour Drive, Fat Chance, and 20/20 Blind, Chad brings a wealth of experience and authenticity to Outside the Lines' music.

Tom anchors the rhythm section with his pulsating bass lines, drawing from a Bay Area upbringing and a solid foundation of rock influences. His collaboration with Chad's guitar drives each song forward with undeniable energy.

Completing the trio is Mario, a versatile drummer with over four decades of musical exploration under his belt. From '80s rock and metal to jazz fusion and beyond, Mario's dynamic percussion style adds depth and dimension to Outside the Lines' compositions.

With lyrics that explore the highs and lows of human existence, Outside the Lines invites listeners on a poignant journey through life's complexities. Their guitar-heavy sound, reminiscent of punk icons like Mike Ness, serves as the perfect backdrop for Chad's introspective storytelling and impassioned delivery.
