Ted Nguyent is an American rock band originally comprised of founding members Michael McGilloway, Travis Arterburn, and James Dobrowolski. They later added Kian Sorouri on the bass after deciding that James wasn't a competent enough instrumentalist (though they can all agree that the bass is not what one might call a 'difficult' instrument). James then acted merely as eye candy before inevitably moving to costa rica and quitting the band. Ted misses him dearly.
