Knock Knock

about

Allen Maxwell and Nicola Miller meet at Land Park's own Tower Theatre in January of 1998. While bonding over cute girls and double-jointed fingers, Allen and Nicola become really good friends. Sometime in 1998 they form a band with the infamous Rob(ert) Austin, called Slumber Party. They start out practicing in Nicola's mom's garage, until a boring Land Parker writes a mean note telling them they are making too much noise. They quietly move their instruments and begin to practice at The Loft. Slumber Party then tours the Pacific Northwest, puts out a tape (yes, a tape), and then breaks up. Allen Maxwell continues to spend many hours recording on a four-track recorder in his room, writing beautifully sad and sometimes hopeful, pop songs. Even though Allen is a star on his own, he decides to form a band, to help tame down his celebrity. Allen hires Nicola as his full time drummer. She signs a contract stating she will be the drummer to his bass for at least 20 years. Nicola and Allen soon meet Allen Campos and quickly see that he is "the one." Campos' unusual guitar tunings and brilliant guitar parts fit well with this drum and bass team. However, the threesome knew something was missing. The missing link was Allen's old Arcata band mate and college friend Heather Conway. Heather moves to Sacramento to play rhythm guitar and sing with the Allens and Nicola. It was clear in Arcata, and is still clear now that Allen Maxwell and Heather Conway were born to sing together. This four
