CO2 formed in 1996 as a rock/power-pop trio, releasing our first album in 1998. We've since moved into an acoustic "unplugged" mode after the departure of our previous drummer and bassist (each left to pursue other professional interests). Singer/songwriter Andre Kuzniarek continues the project as an acoustic duo with new addition Kaleb Barkley on drums and percussion. Kaleb lends his jazz chops to a pop/rock/folk sound with various hand drums in addition to a standard kit. We're currently laying down tracks on a new album scheduled for later this year. Check out our latest demos!
