TROPONIN: definition
Troponin is a hard rock band out of Harrisburg, PA. The songs and lyrics go hand in hand with sweet melodic hooks paired with thought provoking words to fast, aggressive riffs accompanied by ominous phrases. The band began in May 2009, when bass player, Junior Gipe, suffered a heart attack during the first practice, which inspired the band name. Both the group and those who come in contact with them should take note and live every day to the fullest (Facebook).
