FINAL CALL
Pat Carroll- Vocals, Rhythm Guitar
Pat was born and raised on Long Island, New York. With both of his parents being police officers who shared a love of music, he grew up listening to artists like James Taylor, Bruce Springsteen, Metallica, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. He began singing at the age of 4. When he received his first iPod for his 11th birthday with the song "Basket Case" pre-downloaded, it changed his life. Becoming a huge fan of Green Day inspired him to start playing guitar at the age of 11 and aspiring to be in a band. Upon meeting Greg Diem on the Saint Anthony's High School cross country team, they immediately bonded over a shared love of rock and roll, and the rest is history. Pat is currently getting his MBA from Binghamton University. Pat looks forward to making new music and playing more shows with his best friends and hopefully, one day, playing Madison Square Garden.
Greg Diem- Lead Guitar
Greg was born and raised on Long Island, New York. He grew up listening to bands like Pearl Jam and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, which along with Guitar Hero 3, inspired him to start playing guitar at the age of 14. After meeting Pat Carroll on the cross country team, they immediately started jamming to classic Green Day songs and found a love for pop punk. This was the beginning of Final Call. Greg's favorite bands now include Blink-182, Neck Deep, The Story So Far and State Champs. Greg currently studies physical therapy at Quinnipiac University.
Evan Brandow- Drums
Evan was born and raised on Long Island, New York. He grew up listening to bands like the Beatles and the Police. This allowed him to take an interest in music at an early age and be inspired to learn how to play the piano, guitar, trumpet, ukelele, accordion, and bass. Pat and Greg somehow convinced him to learn how to play drums just so that he could play with them in the Saint Anthony's High School Variety Show. Now he rocks the drum kit for Final Call and studies mathematics in the honors program at Providence College.
Josh Roiland- Bass Guitar
Josh was born and raised on Long Island, New York. He became best friends with Greg in elementary school and growing up listening to rock music, they bonded over a shared love of the art. Unlike the rest of the crew, Josh went to Walt Whitman High School. He was invited to play bass for the band when they were juniors in high school so that they could successfully complete their crew. Josh has been the backing soul of the band ever since and now studies biology at Stony Brook University.
