BIO:

Born amongst stagnation within the Portland, OR scene, The Escaped made their first
appearance during the winter of 2000. Combining a dual singer attack of old school hardcore
and punk rock done right with a work ethic rival to hardcore punk’s forefathers, The
Escaped quickly found acceptance from both the punk and hardcore scenes. Soon after
their inception, The Escaped recorded a full length CD called “Born to Lose” and a self titled
7” EP for local label In-Charge Records. Both albums sold out within a short amount of time.
Armed with their energetic performances, The Escaped attacked the road accomplishing
three U.S. tours, a Canadian tour, and countless west coast tours in support of their Rodent
Popsicle CD EP release, “Escaped Generation”. In between tours, The Escaped recorded a
CD for New Jersey based Blackout! Records entitled “Rose City Hard Core” and songs for
Hellcat Records compilation “Give ‘Em The Boot”, Charged Records compilation “Punks
Unite”, and TKO Records split CD “Portland Scene Report”. The Escaped have been busy
touring the United States in support of “Rose City Hard Core” and writing new songs for
a split label release with TKO records and Longshot Records, as well as a song on TKO
records compilation “Punch Drunk”. The Escaped’s future plans are to extensively tour
the world forever. Look out!
