Rock band hailing from New Zealand noted for their quirky sound and hit song “Walkie Talkie Man” which was featured on Apple’s iPod advertisement. The video for “Walkie Talkie Man” was directed by Michel Gondry (White Stripes, Bjork, Foo Fighters) and garnered 5 MTV award nominations and 1 Grammy nomination. It was also included in the Nintendo DS rhythm game Elite Beat Agents, as covered Jason Paige as well as being used in the animated film Robots and used heavily by the BBC.

They have done a cover of AC/DC’s Back In Black.

Formed in 1999, Steriogram got their name from two bands that members had previously performed with - Rogergram and Steriosugar.

Steriogram’s first single release, Soccerstar was mediocre but upon the release of their second single, White Trash saw the group success soar. Like many bands, Steriogram toured New Zealand in a friend’s van without any support crew, doing gigs where they could. In 2002, still unsigned, they joined several other New Zealand bands in the annual Boost Mobile School’s Tour, playing for free during high school lunch hours to get exposure, as well as at bars at night.

In 2002, while recording at a rented beach house they were spotted by an American Label Scout for Capitol Records who had come upon their music video for White Trash on the internet and were signed to Capitol Records later that year.

2004 also saw the release of their debut album, Schmack! which has seen six singles released from it.
