"Although having formed in 2006, Long Island, N.Y pop band Stereo Skyline has no original members to speak of. The trio of singer/guitarist Kevin Bard, drummer Rob Michaelsen and bassist Brian Maddox is on the cusp of touring the U.S. with We The Kings, the Maine and Cartel as part of the Bamboozle Roadshow. But that will be preceded by the Class of 2010 tour with Stephen Jerzak.
Stereo Skyline also hopes to release its new as-yet-untitled album later in July, which will be the follow-up to 2008's self-titled EP.
Spinner spoke with Brian Maddox about the lineup changes, Ke$ha and blowouts.
How did the band form?
Well, it kind of originated like a group of kids playing in high-school. Throughout the years people came and went and did what they wanted. How we all came together was that I was in a band in Texas called Scenes And Sirens and we were on a summer tour which we self-booked with Stereo Skyline. Then we kind of broke up as they were losing a guitar player. Then I moved up to New York and it's kind of been us three ever since. It just felt right, it finally clicked and we all agreed on the sound and the image and everything fell into place perfectly.
How would you describe your sound?
It's feel-good pop with a little bit of...it's just feel-good pop, it's a little Jonas Brothers-y with a little bit of Hanson and all of that with our own flare on it."
