Brandon Jordan was one of the founders of Kill Radio - a punk rock band.  His family had a history of drug abuse, but Brandon didn't start abusing alcohol and drugs until his early 20s. Once he started to party, he went from 0 to 60 in a split second. Friends didn't want to party with him because he was so hard core.  After tanking his successful music career, he got sober and now devotes his time to being the L.A. regional director of "Rock to Recovery" and uses music to help rehabilitate others.

Wes Geer is a successful rock star - literally.  He founded the rock band HedPE and toured with the band Korn.  In 2003, Wes was addicted to methamphetamine, alcohol and pot.  He is now in his 11th year of sobriety. In 2012 he founded Rock to Recovery which is a non-profit organization that allows recovering addicts, victims of abuse and troubled teens to express themselves through song.  Rock to Recovery also works with Wounded Warriors helping our most valued citizens - our veterans.

Wesley Geer has been a professional musician for over 20 years. He first found success as the founding member of Jive Records artist Hed P.E. as a guitarist, songwriter and producer. After touring the world for eight years, Wes left the band for a lifestyle change and ultimately landed in rehab.

He joined Korn and worked with them as their touring guitarist for the next several years, traveling to 42 countries, headlining shows, and appearing on a number of recordings, cable and TV shows. In 2012, Wes founded Rock to Recovery in an effort to bring a new and unique type of group music expression into treatment centers -by forming a band!
