Biography
The classics are "truly original," just like every other band on sonicbids. This is their "unique" story:
Formed in the Winter of 2008 with only a loose collection of musical ideas
written and no set sound in mind, The Classics' chemistry allowed them
to finish material at a rapid rate without sounding forced. They booked
their first show in 3 weeks based solely on a poorly
recorded bedroom demo. Bringing together musicians from very
different backgrounds in the rock world, their influences
span pop, indie, post-rock, metal, alternative, and electronic. The group's influences
are as eclectic as their majors, and include
Weezer, Radiohead, the Beatles, Explosions in the Sky, Muse, and a large group of
pop punk bands such as Green Day and My Chemical Romance. The group's
main strengths lie in their collective songwriting ability and genuine awesomeness.
They recently finished recording their first EP, Mouse Dollar, which is available now.

Setlist
Our typical set list covers anywhere from 4 to 10 songs. Though we prefer to play originals, we also enjoy the crowd's reaction to occasional covers:
We typically play through our entire EP, along with 2 covers (usually Weezer's "Sweater Song" and a rock version of DJ Sammy's "Heaven")
