Origin

The Band was first put together for a high school talent show called "Mr. Magnificent". The original set up was Nathan Romans singing, Rhett Leavitt on Lead Guitar, Tucker Beglan on Bass, and Joe Michael on Drums and robert Lyday doing a quick guest singing spot. they preformed "Dream On" by Aerosmith.

Later the structure of the band was changed when they were asked to fill a time slot in the "Mrs. Magnificent" talent show. Robert Lyday and Nathan Romans Performed "Guy Love" acapella from the television series "scrubs". They then both Co-sang the song "Island in the Sun" by Weezer with Rhett Leavitt on Lead guitar, Joe Michael on Rhythm Guitar, Tucker Beglan on Bass and Justin Juker playing drums. At both preformances they were a hit. After these experiences they decided to start a band so Robert, nathan, rhett, and tucker met at Robert Lyday's house and decided on a name. They chose Censor All But Glory. It meant they would eliminate everything from their lives that wouldn't help them acheive their goals. Nathan and robert wrote their first song "Starting" in about a day and then the rest of the band figured out parts. They perfected it and two other songs they called "perfect belief" and "Burn Daddy and the Sermon Brothers" but this was in the middle of their Junior year and put the band aside until the summer after when Robert called them and said he wanted to get going again. So they met and worked on some new songs but without much success and also lacking a bass player since tucker did not want the job or have the required skill. They asked Rhett's younger Brother derrick but he refused, not liking the Genre. Their friend Brandon Hite was asked and accepted though he had no past experience. He picked up the skills almost immediately. They then decided on a new name "Audible Gasp" thinking it clever, also in memory of their friend Joe Michael who had been forced to move away Before finishing his senior Year. With not much success coming Robert and Rhett met a few times with just them and made 3 new songs which they felt were hits and up to their standards.
