Front man, Aaron Lopez in the summer of 2017, originated BID FOR ESCAPE. The 32 year old brushed off the rust from not playing music in over 8yrs and connected with friend and respected local AZ recording engineer George White (of Saddles & Wild Earth). Lopez wrote the EP "Nothing Left to Lose" and recorded it along side White's producing guidance and the help of Danny Lopez (of Table Top Joe & Cry Night) on Bass. "Nothing Left To Lose" is available on all online music stores such as iTunes, Spotify, Apple Music & Google Play and more...
Once Lopez re-plugged himself in the music scene again he reconnect musically with life long friend and old band mate, of Downcast Fable, Anthony Lee (of Wild Earth). This led to the more recent connection of the very talented guitar player Jacob Ramirez. Since late 2017, Lopez has been playing live shows as Bid For Escape with Lee, Ramirez, and new bass player Jake Moses. With momentum of the EP still thriving, the band is looking to play more shows locally while currently writing more music that is set to be released late summer of 2019.
This local AZ homegrown band now utilizes all their own talents to keep Bid For Escape music as DYI as possible from recording, writing, and even producing their own music. Keep supporting local music by keeping an eye out for this band and coming out to their shows!
