The best kept secret in music

"The quintet is a remarkably talented and tight band that jams away while winking at its jazz and rock influences who, if they could, would certainly wink back." - The Weekender
"It certainly seems from the terrific enthusiasm of their audiences and from their own musical work ethic that Quintus will soon make itself known." - The Commentator
"Haunting. One of the things I look for and keep coming back to is that the lyrics are good and the melodies are haunting.These guys are going to be around a long time if this is any indicator of what they can do." - Yonkers Tribune

Bio
East Village band, Quintus is on the move, packing popular clubs including the Knitting Factory, Lions Den, Tribeca Rock Club, and the Bitter End, emerging as one of New York's rising groups. With influences as diverse as The Beatles, The Band, Miles Davis, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, the Talking Heads, and Radiohead, the band keeps the crowd slightly off balance. Knowing their favorites, shouting out requests, yet never experiencing the same performance twice, Quintus fans keep coming back for another hit.
For Quintus, New York City is only the opening. The band's tour of college campuses, festivals, and venues throughout the Northeast has sparked national demand, landing Quintus on the bill with artists such as Keller Williams, Col. Bruce Hampton, Jen Durkin and the Bomb Squad, Ulu, and New Monsoon. Quintus is currently anticipating a far-reaching college tour, as well as recording new material at the legendary Electric Lady Studios for its second studio release.
