NearMiss was an American punk rock band from Austin, Texas, United States.

History

NearMiss was founded in 2001 by two former members of

Takeover Records in 2006. In 2007, the band went on several interests. Hernandez formed A Balance Between, Bingham formed Grenadier and Portman toured with Yellowcard after Pete Mosely left. They later split, though they are still planning a farewell show. The following year, Portman formed an all-80's hair metal
tribute band called Great White Lion Snake.

On September 14, 2009, Ryan Key and Sean O'Donnell made a MySpace blog post that Portman will be playing lead guitar in their band, Big If. Although the band was quietly discontinued.

Portman went on to play bass for Yellowcard in February 2012 until March 2017.
