Biography
Stuedabakerbrown is one of New York’s most dedicated and exciting independent rock bands. They are also one of the handsomest. They originally hail from the NYC suburb of Monroe, NY, where the five members all attended high school together. They began playing extensively in 2001 and have since become a hometown favorite as well as a regional success.
The band draws influences from legends such as U2 and Tom Petty, contemporaries like Coldplay and Jimmy Eat World, and the essence of mid-90’s alternative rock from their youth is evident in their songwriting. Boasting irresistible original songs and an unforgettable live performance, the group has grown accustomed to large crowds, has sold out New York City’s famous Bitter End rock club multiple times, and packs other venues such as The Mercury Lounge and The Annex on a regular basis.
Their newest release is a two-song "single" entitled Heartbeat. Including their 2008 EP Closer and a 2007 compilation of earlier material, all of the band’s music has been self-produced and self-released, and is currently available at all major online retailers.
