TOTEMSOUL re-grouped in 2005. Lead Singer Mac Steven was contacted by future drummer Jon Postins. They spoke with each other about their goals in the music business and hit it off right away. After a jam session (Audition) Mac knew Jon was the right person for the position. Mac had known Travis for two years and saw his talent on a daily basis. So Mac asked him to join the band. Travis said yes right away. Mac, Jon, and Travis Rehearsed everyday for a month. In that month they mastered twelve songs, played their first show, and recorded their first album. 'Shortcut to thinking' which is a twelve song master piece that connects Alt/Rock, Hard Rock, Blues, Progressive Rock, and old school metal to produce the new sound that is TOTEMSOUL.
