Allison Jones and Derek Fieth formed the duo known as PETS in the summer of 2003. Since the birth of PETS, the band has released four albums, created a handful of clever music videos, toured across the United States, and been featured in not one but two Thrasher Magazine skateboarding DVDs. The band has shared the stage with national acts and have a pretty heavy Sacramento following. Their music lands somewhere between a fuzzy garage band full of distorted guitars and your all time favorite dance party.
