] to Superchunk and Modest Mouse. The band achieved little success in their eight years together from 1992 to 2000, however their third and final album "We Are Amateurs, You and I" is widely regarded as the album which could have kick-started Haywood's rise to fame, had they not coincided the release with the announcement that the band had split up.

History

Band Members

The original four band members - Ted Pauly, Rob Viola, Jeff Paretchan, and Ariel Serbin - played together as Haywood from 1992 until about 1999. Danny Barria replaced Serbin for the remaining two years of the band's career. Pauly (Vocals, guitar), Viola (Drums), Paretchan (Bass, keyboards, backup vocals) and Serbin (guitar, backup vocals) first played together in a high school cover band called Garden Party in suburban Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (which also featured Lars Ro, later of Lampshade; and now in Sfu-ma-to). Despite massive airplay on college radio stations such as Lehigh University's WLVR and stunning good looks, band members did not gain instant notoriety and quickly moved to New York. On Haywood's final album, original member Ariel Serbin is not credited as being a member of Haywood as he departed from the band before their demise. He was replaced by Danny Barria and relegated to the list of thanks.

In 2004, Haywood reunited to work on a set of new material that Pauly had written over the last few years. Their intention was to arrange and record a new album in the studio only. The album was completed in early 2006 but was not released until March 2007.

Post-Haywood

After Haywood split up, Rob Viola and Jeff Paretchan went on to form The Red and the Black along with Tim Lauben and Michael Esper. They released their debut album "Plans For Next Year" in 2002.

Viola and Paretchan also briefly played with Nashville-based singer-songwriter Carter Little.

Danny Barria is now one-third of the Brooklyn-based trio The Big Sleep.
