"Powerhouse Rockers"

"San Francisco Bay Area band Finding Stella is making their way toward mainstream rock with this stand-out independent release. Twitch is Finding Stella's first full-length studio release, and an impressive one at that."

"Twitch both showcases and experiments with Snyder's incredible sound, a voice reminiscent of the grittiness of Beth Hart, the melodic genious of Joni Mitchell, and even the unique, crisp edge of (now deceased) Alice in Chains frontman Layne Staley." - Empowerment4Women


"Perpetually Young"

"Lively, lively, lively. Basic without being "gutbucket." Danceable blue-eyed soul. Enthusiastic, sweaty and inventive. Eleven tunes, ten from within the band; one the Beatles' "Come Together," which has certainly been a good session and live groove for a lot of rock bands over the years. Power chord guitar and female vocal driven and sort of like Heart, but far funkier. All purpose rough and ready rock. Perpetually young." - Word on The Street


"Listener Review"

"A mix of what was and what is..... there's very little new in the industry that can hold up totally on its own. These songs are some of the few worth the wait for even dial-up download! Hear's hoping this band makes the jump to the right coast soon, there's too much talent here to limit them to the wine-tasting crowd in Cally!" - CDBaby.com


"Undoubted Potential"

"Upon listening to this CD – my first taste of Finding Stella – I was immediately enthralled. I understand that the band has been drawing a good number of fans to their music, particularly in the West Coast of the USA. The eleven songs show some clever songwriting capabilities and it’s etched with a rich smoothness in the way the songs are delivered. Good qualities all round and undoubted potential." - MediaSearch

I used to work for a band – a great band - that just couldn’t make magic in the studio. I think Finding Stella is on another spot on the live vs. studio spectrum – they sound great on CD, and it sounds as if they know how to entertain an audience live as well. I think they really shine when they slip effortlessly out of tradition rock patterns (which by default, are a bit played out) and get into some interesting vein like a psychedelic interlude or a near 60’s bubbly moment. Regardless they rock and their musicianship as a unit is just starting to bud. My picks: “Dirty,” “Famous,” “Good Girl,” “In The Hall,” “In My Bed” and “Everytime.”

Bio

Finding Stella is committed to new rock - today’s rock - crafting song after song, and delivering the feel of a present day Heart. The emergence of vocalist Snyder quickly fills the senses of the discerning music lover. The band’s first album “Twitch” sold out quickly during 2004 and represents an expression of the bands’ musical potency, command of their craft and serves up a huge plate of passionate rock.

Singer/songwriter Chris Snyder attributes many different influences and styles to their music – smoothly jumping from classic rock to a little R & B to pop and funk - to create a rich rock sound.
