Formed in August of 1997, the Mercury Program was originally a trio consisting
of Dave Lebleu on Drums, Sander Travisano on Bass, and Tom Reno on Guitar
and Vocals. In July of 1999 we released our self-titled debut full-length
on Boxcar Records.
Shortly after the record was released we began working with Tiger Style,
and Whit Travisano joined the band as a full time 4th member. As a 4 piece
we released our second full length: "From the Vapor of Gasoline"
in May 2000.
We toured extensively from May thru October of 2000. In November of 2000
we went back in the studio with Andy Baker to record a follow up EP:
"All the Suits Began to Fall Off"
After "Suits" was released in April 2001 we toured for the remainder
of the year, and spent much of our time off working on material for the
next full length.
April 2002 we again went into the studio with Andy Baker to recorded our
3rd full length "A Data Learn the Language". Again released
by Tiger Style in September 2002.
To support the record we toured the US for 5+ weeks in the Fall of 2002.
Since then we've done 2+ weeks on the east coast, a week in Japan, and
finished a split EP/DVD with Maserati that was released on October 10th
2003. In the latter half of 2003 we did a 3 week tour of the West Coast
and a 2+ week East Coast tour to support the split.
