4BNM formerly known as Reminiscence

Like Blink-182 and Unwritten Law before them, 4BNM sprang from the fertile music ground of Poway. The power trio – Ramsey Esparza (lead vocals, bass), Hunter Smith (lead guitar) and Tyler Roche (drums) – formed in 2015. The band performs covers, from classic rock (Rolling Stones) and alternative (Pearl Jam) to punk-pop (Green Day) and contemporary hard rock (Highly Suspect). They honed their chops playing gigs throughout the county, eventually landing on more prominent stages, including House of Blues, Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon, and Old Town’s Cinco de Mayo celebration. In 2017, the Poway High teens won the city’s battle of the bands competition. 4BNM is recording a new EP of brand new originals due to be released this fall.
