JET BLACK STEREO
-The Story-
Starting as an idea brewing in the minds of five best friends grown musicians, Jet Black Stereo has evolved into a dedicated rampage of songs, meant to be heard by thousands. Toronto, Canada has no doubt been the birthplace to a number of talented musicians, but no band like Jet Black Stereo.
Growing up with each other was the easy part, even when we were in different bands with completely different sounds and scenes; we always found time to spend on the side. Whether it was writing songs or just hanging out, it was really important to us to keep close ties with each other be it whatever we we’re involved with at the time. If you really wanted to, you could easily separate us, some by style, some by personality, and some by the decades of music that we have been inspired by.
“Just look at Dano and you’ll think the guy just stepped out of a time machine that had destination 1985 written on it. Unfortunately this could be good and bad. “Good” in the sense that he looks different from every other dude but “Bad” in the sense that he would actually listen to 80’s music.”-Nazzy
Nazzy and Dano have the sort of love-hate relationship where there’s always two sides to the story.
“Nazzy is appropriately nick-named ‘The Celebration’ because he’s the type of clown that will do anything at any extent for a laugh. I don’t mind it cause I’m usually right there with him. However, I am a little worried about his wardrobe.” –Dano
Everyone knows there’s that line between a motivator and a control freak, GM always knows where the line is and how far to one side he’s on at all times.
“G.M. Gianmike? More like General Manager in the sense that he’s the guy who maintains as much order possible in the posse. At the same time he knows when to screw around and make sure the rest of the band is having a laugh. A real ladies man as well.” –Monti
Yet as crazy as times get, there’s always one guy you can always count on to step it up in every situation.
“Monti is by far the most creative person when it comes to outdoing an old song with a new one. His energy on stage plays an important role when trying to keep the viewers interested and wanting more, and trust me, they always come back for more. Sometimes not just for the music”-Danny t
There’s always someone that’ll have their hand in everything the band does or is interested in doing, and that someone for Jet Black Stereo is Danny T.
“He’s got a passion for words and an intensity about his voice that I just can’t describe. Just when I think I’ve figured him out he’ll open my eyes to a whole new side of things. As much as they say I keep the guys in line, it’s Danny T that keeps me focused. It’s like were playing a game, and one of us is always trying to out due the other.”- GM
For the 6 months that Jet Black Stereo has been together writing music and performing those songs live, they’ve done the same amount of work that takes some bands years to accomplish. A following that has tripled twice since their first song was posted on their myspace, an ever growing interest from labels, booking agencies, and management. The guys also have a lot of support from a number of different charities and organization that they support such as Invisible Children and WWF. Lyrically, our songs bring up so many different issues that it’s hard to keep track on what we’ve covered and what’s left to cover. The lyrics we write are always dressed around catchy guitar riffs, sing along melodies and synth sounds that will either bring you back to the 80’s or shoot you right back up to the present.
"Comprised of a sound that could be the birth child if Thrice ever hooked up with My Chemical Romance, new born rock act 'Jet Black Stereo' put on a show that is sure to make you move and sing along. With their extremely catchy tunes and their twist on a new wave rock sound, these guys are sure to win over fans at every show they play." - WGTS Magazine.
With everything happening in the industry today, from so many different bands and so many different sounds, the guys in Jet Black Stereo have done something that almost seems impossible to some. The buzz has started.
