Members: James, John, Deepan, Danny, Matt
State Your Cause is an honest and energetic soundtrack for life hailing from Central Ohio. While placing a strong emphasis on hard-hitting live shows, SYC has established themselves as a rock-and-roll mainstay for their growing fan base. The band refuses to disappoint the crowd and acknowledges their fans as the reason to take the stage. State Your Cause is committed in their journey to remove the "local" tag from their name and extend their brand nationally. With the music industry in a state of complete uncertainty, SYC has chosen to make listeners their chief concern. Upon conquering the local music scene in 2007, SYC's original founders -- bassist Danny Zeid and guitarist Deepan Rajah -- sought to break into the national music scene drawing from radio influences ranging from Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace to Lost Prophets and Story of the Year. After dropping members that didn't share their growing vision, Rajah and Zeid drafted drummer Matt Young from a competing band and soon gained the attention of vocalist James Scott. After a successful run of shows fronting the band, James convinced his brother, guitarist John Scott, to leave his band and join. With State Your Cause completely reformed by mid-2008, the five members teamed with producer Ben Schigel (Drowning Pool, Switched, Walls of Jericho) to create their debut album, "Escape, Rebellion and Promise." While working with Schigel, SYC has broadened their appeal intending to gain attention professionally as well as listeners of multiple genres. With dreams and careers on the line, State Your Cause will continue to push for all to take notice.
