Biography

Pre Alpha Test started as the greatest, youngest act out of York, PA. Comprised of only two members (Alex Gann and Christina Mergenthaler), the acoustic/pop/folk/emo group took the Suburban scene by force.

After many years of writing, recording, and performing, the duo split due to college and whatnot. Will there ever be a reunion show/recording? Perhaps, but only by popular demand. Let the wave of fans come freely! (or not...)

UPDATE! (10/3/08), the better half of the Pre Alpha Test duo now has her own solo work up on thesixtyone! Check it out:

Officially max bumped everything on both chrissie and pre alpha test - well almost. I'm short 1 bump on "Getting Out" with 3 points left... I sure hope you guys get famous here. Something amazingly original about the sound... keep it up! :)

you guys are a great, need more exposure though. I think maybe a good way of doing that is to try and get high level peeps to listen in on your songs, maybe

Hey guys.

Sorry for all the crazy uploading. We'll keep it at just these seven songs for awhile to let the hype build. We wanted to get a solid sampling of our work for now, and we thought it would take these seven songs to give people an ample selection.

We'll add more songs when we feel we're more established (and, hopefully, we'll have hit the homepage with at least one song by that time).

You are absolutely great. guys. But rest a while and don't upload any more songs. Let the ones you got out settle down. Because now they just start to compete with each other.
