Biography
Idle Mind begain on December 24, 1998 when Mark Elder and Luke Franklin decided to jam just for fun one day. They set up there equipment in Mark's garage and just started jamming. They wrote there first song that night and decided to start a band. Luke knew to guys, one that played bass and one that played drums. He asked them to come and jam with him and Marc to see if they all clicked. The first time jamming they all just flowed and fed off of each other. After starting off playing mainstream radio play songs for about a year the band decided to drop everything they had written and start all over. They decided to play more energetic emotional driven song. After writing there whole new set band hit the local scene and has fit right in. Idle Mind will be recording there first indie album in early 2001. Watch for it.
