Bedford Academy

Bedford Academy started under the name "Sweater Weather" but changed it after signing with 'History Major Records' because there was another band with the same name and it would be an infringement to release anything under the name. It started with only two members (Ross & Trevor) but when live performances became a constricting problem they added two more members to play acoustic and electric guitar (Bill & Jerry). Chris Cardaci, who was in The Thrift Syndicate with Ross, later joined as the band's drummer.
