Bayside's Nick Ghanbarian and Chris Guglielmo turned their coffee addiction into punk rock roasting, establishing Legal Speed Coffee Company.
Bayside was formed in October 2000 in Bayside, Queens, New York City, by lead vocalist Anthony Raneri. The group, which also includes lead guitarist Jack O’Shea, bassist Nick Ghanbarian, and drummer Chris Guglielmo, began their career self-releasing a five-song demo. Their early efforts led to a signing with Dying Wish Records, under which they released their debut EP, “Long Stories Short,” in 2001. After touring with several other bands in the early 2000s and releasing a split EP with Name Taken in 2003, Bayside signed with Victory Records, marking a significant step in their professional journey. Their debut full-length album, “Sirens and Condolences,” was released in January 2004.
The band achieved mainstream recognition with their self-titled follow-up album, “Bayside,” released in August 2005. This period was marked by tragedy when, during a tour in October 2005, a van accident resulted in the death of drummer John “Beatz” Holohan and serious injury to bassist Nick Ghanbarian. Despite this, Bayside released “Acoustic,” an EP dedicated to Holohan. Chris Guglielmo later joined as the new drummer, and the band released “The Walking Wounded” in 2007, which was re-released as “The Walking Wounded: Gold Edition” in July 2007 with bonus content. Their fourth full-length album, “Shudder,” and a live album, “Live at the Bayside Social Club,” both came out in September 2008.
Bayside continued to build their discography and touring presence, performing at festivals like Bamboozle multiple times. They signed with Wind-up Records in 2010 and released “Killing Time” in 2011, produced by Gil Norton, known for his work with the Foo Fighters and The Pixies. The band also released several EPs, including “Covers Volume #1” in 2012 and signed with Hopeless Records in 2013, releasing “Cult” in 2014, followed by “Vacancy” in 2016 and “Interrobang” in 2019. Their recent releases include “The Red EP” (2022), “The Blue EP” (2023), and their ninth studio album, “There Are Worse Things Than Being Alive” (2024), demonstrating their continued creative output and enduring impact.
