Southern California (1996 – 2007)

Stavesacre is a Southern California-based rock band that, despite some key lineup changes and the vagaries of the music business, has endured for more than a decade. The band’s first three albums sold a combined 90,000 copies, and has often been referred to by industry insiders as “the best band you’ve never heard of.”

Stavesacre debuted in 1996 with the album Friction. The band’s tough, hard rock sound and the very strong, distinctive voice and lyrical work of vocalist Mark Salomon immediately gained Stavesacre a very strong and devoted following. The band continued on with two more exceptionally well-received studio albums, Absolutes and Speakeasy, on Seattle-based Tooth & Nail Records. During this period of time the group was associated with the edgier side of the contemporary Christian music scene. But dissatisfaction with what the band saw as hypocrisy in that industry led to a well-publicized break from the scene in 2000. Stavesacre released a split EP with Denison Marrs in 2001 on Velvet Blue Music which featured three new songs and then released Collective, a retrospective best-of/outtakes collection, to complete their contract with Tooth & Nail.

In 2002 Stavesacre signed with the independent Nitro Records and released (stāvz’ā’kər), with producer David Bianco at the helm. The band’s first three albums were produced by Bryan Carlstrom.

    We opened up for these guys in Grants Pass back in 2000 at south middle school. Their Guitarist was a bad ass.

メル友との距離感

15 Sep 2011 | from www.stavesacre.com

メル友とはメールで知り合い、メールだけで関係を築きながら付き合いする関係を呼びます。 メル友とうまくやっていくために必要なのは、やり取りを交わすために使う言葉になってきま す。実際に会って話すときの言葉遣いみたいなものでしょう。 メル友の場合、大体はお互いに顔や本名などを知らない場合がほとんど。顔を突き合わせ 、表情を伺いながら話すことはなかなかありません。 …
