The
Strand - 2008 Bio:
Six quirky friends band
together to bring you fun, dancy, riff driven industrial music. Since
their inception in 2000, The Strand has produced four full length
CDs, and received massive acclaim from promoters, journalists, and
fans across the globe with their catchy, aggressive hits. Their music
gets airplay in numerous gothic and industrial clubs worldwide and
has appeared in a variety of magazines, websites, and independent
movies. Featured on four nationally distributed compilations, they
have launched from being a small home-based production into the ears
and eyes of industrial fans across the globe.
They have supported several national acts, and performed on the main
stage at Convergence 11 2005, as well as the Dark Arts Festival in
Salt Lake City 2004 and 2007. To celebrate their 2008 'Destroyers'
cd release, the band headed out for their first Midwest tour, and
continues to book performances in and around the Southwest. With no
plans to let up, the band continues to write and produce new music,
and play shows, thanks to their dedicated fans.
The band does not take the conventional techno approach when bringing
the music to a live scenario. Instead, a majority of the music is
performed live with a drummer, four keyboardists, male and female
vocals. If you have not seen a live performance by The Strand, it
is really something to consider checking out.
