Ex-SNOT/SOULFLY Guitarist Announces Debut INVITRO Performance
October 30, 2006Kansas City Chiefs' offensive tackle Kyle Turley recently spoke to Sports Illustrated writer Michael Silver about GridIron Records, the label he founded with ex-SNOT/SOULFLY guitarist Mikey Doling. An excerpt from the interview is as follows:
Silver: Speaking of cash, what's up with your music career?
Turley: "Well, I've started a record label, Gridiron Records, and I'm planning on kicking some ass. I had a lot of downtime when I was out for those two years, and I'd made a lot of friends in the music industry. I hooked up with this guy named Mikey Doling, who had founded a band called SNOT out of Santa Barbara. They had played Ozzfest and were gonna be huge but the singer got in a car crash and died, and that was that. Mikey's a killer guitarist, and he and I would see these phenomenal bands in Hollywood that were still unsigned, and that set the wheels in motion: 'Dude, we need to start a label.' So, now we have our own MySpace page at www.myspace.com/gridironrecords, and we're signing three kinds of bands: rock, hard rock and super-heavy. We have this band called HAREBRAIN SCHEME that sounds sort of like death metal mixed with THE BEATLES, 311-style reggae and QUEEN."

In the meantime, Doling has finished recording with his new project INVITRO, which also features ex-members of Los Angeles based THE WIZARDS. The band recently uploaded samples from their forthcoming debut album at www.myspace.com/invitrorules and have also announced their debut live performance November 1, 2006 at the Whisky A Go Go in Hollywood, CA with Bieler Bros. recording artist ANKLA (ex-PUYA).
