This band exemplifies how the Brooklyn music scene works: a singer from small-town Minnesota meets a guitar player from Iowa. The Williamsburg restaurant where the singer works is owned by a former punk drummer, who coincidentally knows a bass player from Canada. When joined by a calssically trained, private piano teacher, the Hype Of The States were completed. The members are Jezrael (Vocal, Guitar), Austin Raukus (Guitar), Kristina B. Nameless (Bass), Sandelicious (Drums) and Mike Weiser (Keys).
The Brooklyn based quintet released their debut EP "Some Like It H.O.T.S.", a collection of high-quality pop rock songs with an edge.
I'd describe their sound simply as: Really catchy and plain cool!
You should definitely give them a listen!
