In their song “Chelsea's Calling’ vocalist Jason Stollsteimer sings out on top of angular post-punk guitar tones and house party-esque drums, “We can't stay for ever, but we'll spend the night”. This line seems to sum up the general attitude of this four piece rock outfit. With a sound born out of Midwestern hearts and oceanic dreams , The Hounds Below aims to bring quality and pureness to the independent music scene in order to impact all who hear their recordings or witness their high energy live shows. Michigan natives Mathew Hofman (guitar), Adam Michael Lee Padden (bass), Will A. Shattuck (Drums), and Jason Stollsteimer (vocals, guitar) rely on each other to build on their influences (which include everything from early U2, archers of loaf, 1970’s punk, and all music that is honest and good) and keep creating the highest caliber of original music. The Michigan four-piece blends angular post-punk, rock and the balladeers of yesterday, mastering the art of mature indie- pop while still winking at youth’s never-ending need to wave a flag of revolt. The result is a modern love letter to the masses that manages to paint a canvas of hope detailing wasted days and blurry nights. The Hounds Below have had the privilege of sharing the stage with Airborne Toxic Event, BRMC, The Whigs, Band of Skulls, The Heavy, The Cribs, and The Ravonettes.
