Chris Conley
Christopher Lane "Chris" Conley (born February 29, 1980) is an American musician, songwriter, and composer. He is also the lead-singer/rhythm guitarist in Saves the Day. He is the only remaining original member as well as major artistic contributor.
Background
Conley formed a band with a group of classmates at Princeton Day School. The band was originally titled Indifference, but later renamed the band Sefler. Conley has cited some of his early influences as the Smiths, Led Zeppelin, Billy Joel, Superchunk, the Smashing Pumpkins, Sunny Day Real Estate, Archers of Loaf, Screeching Weasel, Jawbreaker, Gorilla Biscuits and Lifetime.
Sefler was originally composed of Conley, Bryan Newman, Chris Zampella and Justin Gaylord. They recorded a 3-track 7" entitled "13 Hours of Everything" one afternoon in a friend's basement. They then recorded a nine-track demo at Trax East Studio in New Jersey. While recording, a friend of the band (and later bassist), Sean McGrath, suggested that they change their name to Saves the Day, which they did.

Ignition Times Four
by: Chris ConnelyWhat you bring upon yourself
today of all days you need help
mind collapsing middle anguish
cure of falling in the dark
today of all days twilight seems so desperate
adjacent to your prime ignition escalate
times one
times two
times three
times four
you wouldn't know it but the kid was right
moving sideways in a sundance to avoid the light
depth and true distance....
times one
times two
times three
