Model Stranger – Where Do We Go From Here
Biography
An eclectic synthesis of psychedelic grunge and classic rock, Model Stranger’s sound has been described as “akin to an off beat conversation between a deprived Thom Yorke and an angry John Lennon dissecting the modern challenges of the human condition.”
Taking a live performance driven approach into the studio to record “Dreams & Bones” like so many of the great classic rock bands of the 1970s, the band - made of singer/guitarist Stephen Francis, bassist Kevin James, and drummer Vincent Joseph - captures an energy and excitement in their music vacant in most indie rock releases today. While the record exhibits an intoxicating raw and authentic quality in part thanks to an analog recording process, the band utilizes their production skills and chops to deliver a record with a twist of modern finesse.
While the phrase “making a record” is usually used in a figurative manner these days in a digital world, Model Stranger is taking it literally. Following through on a record that began with an organic recording process, the band is planning a special release with select material to be released on vinyl as well as their full length CD.
Their music has drawn comparison to bands as diverse as The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Dandy Warhols, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix, Pearl Jam, Smashing Pumpkins, Elliott Smith, Bright Eyes, Silverchair, Radiohead or Muse and has/is spun on two of Chicago’s finest rock/alternative radio Stations: WXRT and Q101.
