SOMA is a rock ’n roll / grunge band formed in early 2000 by founding members Robert Piazza (Lead Vocals/Guitar) and Joe Mclean (Drums). Following the departure of Richard (Lead Guitar) and Andrew (Bass/Vocals) in the summer of 2005, the two originators of the group once again found themselves at the beginning. Rob quickly decided to contact Will Davidson (Bass/Vocals) who he had met back in 2003 and had befriended after their two bands shared the stage many a time. The trio then decided it was time to start auditioning lead guitarists and things were not looking good until Phil Leduc (Lead Guitar/Vocals) walked in the door and completed the puzzle.
