Have You Heard of This Rochester Band? – [LISTEN]

You probably saw them last weekend at the Rochester Art Center for "Minnesota Goes Pop!".

Have you seen, or heard of, Second Story yet? This trio reminds me a hell of a lot of Rush. Not in sound or music style necessary, but they emit the same power with just three guys that Rush does.

Second Story describes themselves as an "Indie-Grunge-Punk power trio from Rochester, MN.  Playing original music with loud guitars, subtle intensity and controlled chaos." - I'm in!

If you like Weezer, Sublime, Nirvana, The Clash, or Cursive you're in for a treat. That's who influences Second Story.

They're relatively new to the scene, but they've already put out a new (and first) self-titled EP.

For me, at first listen, Sterling Haukom's voice sounded a lot like Rivers Cuomo! Amazing! Second Story consists of Sterling Haukom - Guitar/Vox, Tim Kline - Drums and Mike Terrill - Bass.

They've already got a sweet video under their belt too!

Check out Second Story today!
