Still Pending was an American punk children band, formed in Portland, Oregon, United States, in 2005. The band originally comprising three young musicians, Reed Gulick-Stutz (guitar and vocals), Grant Ellman (drums and vocals), and Ian Rogers (bass guitar). In June 2007, Rogers left the band and was replaced by Andrew Turel in August 2007.[1] It is rumored that the band broke up due to drummer and vocalist Grant Ellman embarking on a Jamaican Patois vocalism and lyric training course, leaving little time for him to perform his band duties because of the intense training schedule. The official website is currently down, and their social media is inactive currently.
