He Is Legend

He Is Legend is an American rock band from Wilmington, North Carolina, known for their eclectic sound that blends elements of post-hardcore, hard rock, southern rock, and metal. Formed in 2003, the band’s current lineup consists of frontman Schuylar Croom, guitarist Adam Tanbouz, bassist Matty Williams, and drummer Jesse Shelley. Throughout their career, He Is Legend has released several albums and EPs, showcasing their ability to evolve their sound while maintaining a distinct identity.Their music is characterized by dynamic vocals, ranging from melodic singing to aggressive screams, intricate guitar work, and a rhythm section that seamlessly navigates between heavy, groove-oriented passages and more atmospheric moments. Despite their critical acclaim and a dedicated fanbase, He Is Legend remains somewhat underappreciated in the broader rock scene, with many considering them to be “your favorite band’s favorite band” due to their unique musicianship and genre-bending approach.

“Twice as fun as an actual Morrissey show” – Rob Sheffield, Rolling Stone

Critically acclaimed Smiths tribute (Rolling Stone, WIRED, New York Times) performs the legendary band’s classics and deep cuts, recreating the spirit of a real Smiths show, with a singer the same age as Morrissey in his 80s prime. The New York-based touring tribute has sold out shows from Boston to LA, and has shared the the stage with members of Guided by Voices, Nada Surf and Morrissey’s former touring band.

“These guys love the band, and they’re really passionate about it” – Andy Rourke, bassist for The Smiths

Monophonics

Since 2012, Monophonics has steadily built a reputation as a consistent band with a unique sound. Well crafted songs and records are matched by an energetic live performance. A heavenly signature style: Pure timeless heavy soul and warm textures of psychedelic rock. This is a band that revels in the past, taking you back to the stylings of the late 60s and early 70s, while always keeping its feet positioned in the present, looking ahead to the future.

Front man, vocalist & keyboardist Kelly Finnigan always leads with power. The renowned rhythm section starts with drummer Austin Bohlman along with Max Ramey on Bass and Aquilles Magaña on guitar. A dynamic horn section led by Ryan Scott on Trumpet with Jason Cressey playing Trombone always elevates the show & sound. This core group drips in cosmic fashion.

As a touring band, Monophonics has taken their act to dozens of countries, selling out venues all over the states, UK & Europe including London, NYC, Athens, LA, Istanbul, San Francisco, Amsterdam & Paris. Known for putting on an infectious performance which places their intimate songwriting and soulful musicianship on full display. Its the kind of concert that delivers gifts to the mind, body and soul of every crowd in each city they travel to. Monophonics brings a musical experience that is unforgettable, which has earned the group a global fanbase and loyal following.

Sage Motel, Monophonics’ fifth studio album released in 2022 on Colemine Records, once again captures the bands timeless psychedelic soul sound that they are known to produce. Met with an outstanding reception including nods from NPR Music, KCRW, BBC and Shindig, the record has thrived in multiple scenes. Since it’s release, ‘Sage Motel’ has found its way to millions of listeners online and seen thousands of records distributed and sold in record shops around the world.
