New Transit Direction

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The New Transit Direction (TNTD) is an Indie band from Salt Lake City, Utah, formed in 2000.

They have performed as an opening act with The Used, Taking Back Sunday, The Blood Brothers and Form of Rocket.

After self-releasing a self-titled EP, the band signed a record deal with Some Records. TNTD's debut album, Wonderful Defense Mechanisms, was produced and mixed by John Congleton (90 Day Men, The Paper Chase), and was released by Some Records in 2004.

Quinn Allman of The Used is reportedly friends with all the members in the band and regards it as an influence.

Kilby Court, a venue in Salt Lake City, has been described by the band as "home".

Currently, the drummer Dan Whitesides has replaced Brandon Steineckert as the new drummer in The Used.
