Potbelly
Whidbey Island Kings!

   Potbelly formed in January 1995 on Whidbey Island in Washington State. Over the years, the band has produced 162 releases, including 9 full length albums, as well as splits with giants such as D.O.A., D.I., Dwarves, The Accüsed, MDC, Fang, and many more. 
   Potbelly has always been a revolving door of best friends and family. 
   Co-founder Jason Potbelly is the only member to have been every lineup, and he has played every show. Except for some brief absences, founding member Ken Ball has also been with the band continuously, and has played on every release. Jeff Thayer, who joined in 1996, has been in and out of the group a few times, but clocks in as the longest-running drummer in Potbelly’s history, having played in the band for a total of 22 years.
   Currently,  Potbelly consists of only these three musicians, but there have been as many as seven members of the group on stage at one time. Gigs, studio work, and touring have been continual since day one, reflecting the band’s strong work ethic. 29 years after the formation of the group, it is still releasing new material, and appearing on stages globally.
