What’s the story behind your band’s name?
We were The Pack… and then we found out that we were not alone. So, we decided to change our name. But, we’d already been so used to being The Pack that it was next to impossible for us to agree on a different name. So, then we decided to keep the name and just add to it. Hence… The Pack A.D.
What is the one thing you want everyone to know about your band?
We like to drink. But we like to drink responsibly. For example, we’re big believers in coasters. That’s just how we roll.
