Divided By Design is a 4-piece rock band from San Diego, California.

Featuring a lineup of vocalist Jeffrey Jackson, bassist Eric Raether, guitarist Brian Raether and drummer Tim Lesh, the band was born from an influence of intertwined roots in alternative and experimental rock, grunge and alternative metal. 

Serving time in other musical projects (Jeffrey Jackson - Emotion Sickness, Behind Space;  Tim Lesh - The Kobbs, Museum, Metal Mariachis, Led Pencil;   Eric Raether – The Kobbs, Plug;  Brian Raether – The Kobbs, Redamber Green), the four band members united in 2010 to form a sound that delivers a spike of raw emotion driven by lyrical inspiration and personal evolution, melodic guitar phrasing, heart-thumping bass, and aggressive, stylistic percussion. 

 Divided By Design released their debut EP "Mars" on October 4, 2011. Mars is the first in a string of four planetary themed EP's planned by the band in order to create a steady stream of music vs. releasing full albums every two to four years. "Jupiter" their sophomore EP went into production in late June 2012 and is set to release early 2013.
