The genesis of IATB traces back to Robbie Pieschke's solo musings which paved the way for Drink Tea. In collaboration with Aaron Warner (cello) and Empire! Empire! frontman Keith Latinen (drums), along with Brooke Pieschke (vocals), Drink Tea became the starting point for the current IATB roster which includes Robbie (vocals, guitar), Aaron (cello), Tyler Germain (bass), Garret Shetler (drums), and Aaron DeVries (guitar).
The addition of Germain, Shetler, and DeVries brings about new influences and backgrounds that further contribute to a dynamic sound and adds new potential to an already ambitious project.
Drink Tea was recorded by Keith Latinen (Empire! Empire! (I was a Lonely Estate), Gallop) and mixed and mastered by Mark Jacob Hudson (Saves the Day, Chiodos, Two Tongues).
