When original Distillers-drummer Mat Young leaves the band, despite all enthousiastic reviews of their debut album, he gets replaced by Andy Outbreak.



Andy Outbreak's real name is Andrew Granelli. He is a former semi-professional wrestler and used to be drummer for The Nerve Agents. Andy left to join powerful punk-trio The Distillers.



Fronted and founded by twenty-two year old Australian singer/guitarist Brody Armstrong, and completed with bassist/backing vocalist Ryan Sinn, Andy's drumming is backed up by two tough ladies in this band.



The L.A. New Times wrote about Andy and his band:

"From cruddy street corners, dank, trash strewn squats, scary methadone clinics, and fucked-up childhoods comes the lovely, dysfunctional punk fury of The Distillers. If you like your punk from actual punks - with spit, broken glass, scabies and wet-dog odor mixed in – then check out The Distillers."

Early 2005 Andy Granelli defected from the punk act Distillers to sit behind the kit for Darker My Love, a band he helped get off the ground when he was still playing with The Nerve Agents.
