History
Look What I Did was formed in 2001 in Nashville, Tennessee by singer, Barry Donegan and guitarist, Colby Shea . Miles McPherson (drums, currently drumming for Kelly Clarkson ) and Chris Bradley (bass) were added before the band's first public live performance in January 2002.
In 2003, the band added a second guitar player, Aaron "Skeet" Childress, formerly of National Green , and relocated to Los Angeles, California . At this time they also released their first recording, an independently recorded, financed, and released LP, My First Time , on their own Clockrock Recordings. Despite its limited pressing, the record received many features from ezines such as theprp.com, http://www.theprp.com/featured/lookwhatidid.shtml theprp.com loudside.com, http://www.loudside.com/music/artists/Look%20What%20I%20Did loudside.com Opuszine.com. http://www.opuszine.com/blog/entry.html?

In 2005, newly reformed Combat Records and producer, Brian Virtue ( Jane's Addiction , TheStart ) worked with the band to release Minuteman for the Moment on October 4, 2005.

Decibel magazine referred to the band in a review of Atlas Drugged, "Look What I Did crush on political philosophers, put Latin words in their song titles and generally get off on being a bunch of wiseasses to spazzed-out Adderall punk." http://decibelmagazine.com/Content.aspx? ncid=363112
