From the Lower East Side of Manhattan came the punk rock quintet L.E.S. Stitches -- Mick Brown (vocals/guitar), Curtis Stitch (lead guitar), Todd Radict (rhythm guitar), Damian Branica (bass), and James Baggs (drums). The band's story begins in the late '80s, when friends Stitch and Radict joined forces in the band the Radicts. When the group folded in the early '90s, the duo decided to stick together, and formed L.E.S. Stitches with a few other punk enthusiasts. Soon they began gigging around NYC, playing CBGB's and other hangouts, and acquired many new fans opening for the Dickies, D-Generation, and Murphy's Law. Legendary Ramones frontman Joey Ramone took the band under his wing after being blown away by their live act, and featured the band at one of his showcases for unsigned talent. Due to all the publicity, L.E.S. Stitches soon signed to Ng Records, releasing their full-length debut, Snapped, in 1996. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide
