Rose Blossom Punch

The Seattle-based Rose Blossom Punch is a post-grunge alternative rock band featuring Aaron Sprinkle (lead vocals, guitar), Terry Coggins (lead guitar, vocals), Nick Barber (bass, vocals) and Paul Mumaw (drums, percussion). Sprinkle and Barber had previously played together in Poor Old Lu. Once that group disbanded, they joined forces with Coggins and Mumaw to form Rose Blossom Punch. Their self-released independent recordings were regional hits and earned the band some national attention. That led to a contract with SaraBellum, a subsidiary of Warner Brothers. Rose Blossom Punch's debut album for SaraBellum, Ephemere, was released in the fall of 1997. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
