Matt Sertich
The Generals may be a fairly new band—they played their first show back in September—but the emotionally charged, synth-heavy trio features local music veterans Matt Sertich and Kirk Janowiak from Pocket Change and Zero to Heaven. First envisioned as a studio band, Sertich and Janowiak spent several months writing and recording songs before enlisting the help of bassist Blane Barker and making the leap to the stage.
