  • Threatin

    18 NOV 2018 · In the summer of 2018, three musicians - guitarist Joe Prunera, bassist Gavin Carney, and drummer Dane Davis - responded to audition requests from a Los Angeles talent agency.   All three ended up joining an up-and-coming band named Threatin, fronted by a mysterious young man calling himself "Jered Threatin."
