The Calling
The Calling is a band formed in Los Angeles, California. The band started off with Alex Band (vocals) and Aaron Kamin (guitars) after the pair became friends as teenagers (Kamin was dating Band's sister at the time), which lead to them being signed to a development deal with RCA. As their band advanced new members joined who were Sean Woolstenhulme (guitars), Billy Mohler (bass) and Nate Wood (drums), and an album was recorded. Issued in July 2001,
Camino Palmero became a hit on the strength of its single,
Wherever You Will Go. Band and Kamin (without Wodd, Wolstenhulme, and Mohler) returned in June 2004 with
Two. In June 2005 the band split up and Alex Band announced that he would release a solo album.
