Sweater Club plays progressive rock with ska influences a' la RX Bandits or Monty, or even a punk rock version of Chicago (who are sick by the way).

Bio

Sweater Club 2 years ago with two defining principles: originality and creativity. With that in mind, its only natural that the 6 members of what would be Sweater Club would choose music as the application of both. Coming together through jazz combos, marching bands, and cabins in the woods (dont ask), these fellow students realized that music was far too important to all them to continue letting mainstream mediocrity be its defining element. As a result, Sweater Club have brandished a style all their own, an intricate blend of rock, jazz, punk, ska, etc, etc. Their signature sound has landed them on stage with San Fran prog rockers Facing New York (http://www.myspace.com/facingnewyork), PunkNews Records prodigies Somerset, new reggae sensations Pepper, Satori (http://www.myspace.com/satorimusic) (featuring members of RX Bandits), GDB (http://myspace.com/gdb)(from Vegas), Action Rockers Monty (http://www.myspace.com/montyrock), and ska legends The Toasters, just to name a few.

As much as I don't like people bumping their threads, I just gave this profile (so to speak) a facelift, so its definitely more checkout-able. Listen and discuss, please.

Peace,

Allright,
since its in vogue to be self-promoting once more, I'm gonna go ahead and bump this thread. Take a listen. Maybe you'd like to catch us this summer as we'll be on tour with GDB (MDB records). You can get the latest tour dates from myspace.com/sweaterclub.

Not bad. The only kind of ska I really like is the fast, upbeat, cheesey stuff, but you guys are definitely good at what you do.

"Punk's not dead it just deserves to die when it becomes another stale cartoon."

I *love* the creative aspect. Out with the 'verse/chorus/verse'!

She just ... just rocks!
