BIO:
From the beginning, Stand was a band, and one that knew well the difference between
a fling and the real thing. Right out of the gate, the four musicians came across as limbs on the same body. They seemed to have transcended themselves, to have arrived already living in the heady air most spend a lifetime trying to locate, getting lost on the way because they’ve confused the map for the road.
Hearing the band’s majestic, broad, flailing gesture of a sound was to feel oneself in the presence of something bigger than the four men making that sound.

Recall that you’ve had this feeling before, of course. Maybe the first time you heard
Bowie, or the Replacements, or R.E.M, or U2, or Radiohead, or the Flaming Lips, or even Coldplay, if that’s as far as your imagination will allow you to go. Whatever it was, and whoever happened to be channeling it, the odds are, it showed you some avenue out of your cul de sac of themoment. Great bands do what songs heard in passing and forgotten about immediately thereafter can’t – they renew your faith, and remind you why you fell
in love with music in the first place.
